Investigate process variation, aging, and radiation effects in spintronic MRAM-based in-memory computing. Developed Dyn-A-Map for post-training weight mapping and ARMOR-IMC for power side-channel analysis and mitigation.
Currently developing an LLM-assisted framework for fault-aware mapping in MRAM-based analog computing, combining adaptive mapping regions, deterministic verification, and simulation-based evaluation.
Developed methods for FPGA workload classification from power traces and contributed to electromagnetic AES-128 key recovery from industrial controllers and synaptic-weight leakage analysis in spiking neural networks.
Contributed to automated secure IC design and GPT-assisted logic obfuscation, including functional verification, SAT-attack evaluation, and power–area analysis.
Contributed to Monte Carlo reliability analysis of ferroelectric-memory readout, examining device variability, read disturbances, potential voltage fault-injection attacks, and proposed mitigations.
Contributed to LLM-assisted hardware-design workflows through AI-HDL, including Verilog generation, verification, and design-tool feedback. Supported hardware vulnerability analysis and mitigation recommendations.
