Profile

Weizhi Meng is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science, Technical University of Denmark (DTU), Kongens Lyngby, Denmark. He received his B.S. degree in Computer Science from the Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications, China and obtained his Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from the City University of Hong Kong (CityU), Hong Kong SAR, China. Prior to joining DTU, he worked as a research scientist in Institute for Infocomm Research, A*STAR, Singapore, and as a senior research associate in the CS department of CityU. He is currently directing the SPTAGE Lab at DTU.

He won the Outstanding Academic Performance Award during his doctoral study, and is a recipient of the Hong Kong Institution of Engineers (HKIE) Outstanding Paper Award for Young Engineers/Researchers in both 2014 and 2017. He also received many Best Paper Awards and Best Student Paper Awards from international conferences, such as NSS 2016, ISPEC 2018, Inscrypt 2019, ISC 2020, ACISP 2020, BlockSys 2021, IEEE DSC 2021, etc. Other awards include the IEEE Outstanding Leadership Award for IEEE Blockchain 2018 and IEEE ATC 2019, the Publons Top Peer Review Award in 2018/2019, and many outstanding reviewer awards for Elsevier journals.

Research Interests

My primary research focuses on cyber security, artificial intelligence, and blockchain technology, such as intrusion detection, biometric authentication, CPS/IoT security, smartphone security, trust management, malware detection, blockchain in security, cloud security, and HCI security. I am also interested in cryptography, especially its use in IoT applications. Further, I am working on the application of artificial intelligence in information/cyber security. My research has been reported in some media such as ComputerWorld and DTU News.

Here is the list of my publications.

Some recent projects that I am taking part in and managing are as follows.
