Latest — Under review, ICSE 2027
ML model hosting security · Large-scale empirical study
Large-scale study of roughly 45,000 repositories across major ML model hosting ecosystems, measuring unsafe deserialization, eval injection, malware signals, and recurring developer security misconceptions.
Submitted to TACL 2026 · SHIFT audit
SHIFT checks whether a trigger changes which valid option an agent chooses, and whether that movement favors the attacker's target. With Chowdhury Rakin Haider.
Multi-agent verification · Schema generation
Multi-agent framework for generating relational database schemas and ER diagrams from requirements, with auto-repair and formal verification.
Undergraduate thesis · Blockchain healthcare
