Xue Lin is an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Northeastern University, with a courtesy appointment in Khoury College of Computer Science. She joined Northeastern in 2017 and holds a PhD from the University of Southern California (2016) and a bachelor’s from Tsinghua University. Her research focuses on robust and secure machine learning, deep learning on edge devices, and cyber-physical systems. She leads the High Energy-Efficiency & Performance System Lab, which develops efficient algorithms and systems for applications like autonomous vehicles and medical AI.
Dr. Lin’s work is supported by NSF, DARPA, and the U.S. Department of Transportation, among others. Notable achievements include a $1M DARPA grant for adversarial diagnosis systems, a 1st Place ISLPED 2020 Design Contest win, and multiple best paper awards. She has advised students such as Kaidi Xu (PhD’21), Mengshu, and Siyue, who have contributed to impactful projects like adversarial T-shirt attacks and FPGA-based DNN accelerators. Her research also addresses security in autonomous systems and inclusive design challenges for older and visually impaired passengers.
Key grants include NSF CPS Small Awards, SaTC Medium Awards, and collaborations with institutions like the University of Maine and Michigan State University. Awards include the 2024 Faculty Fellow Award and recognition in Stanford’s top 2% cited scientists. Her lab’s projects span secure autonomous systems, energy-efficient inference frameworks (e.g., GRIM), and robust neural network verification techniques.
