Xuming Huang

I'm an innovative CS undergrad at University of Wisconsin - Madison, exploring the cutting edge where AI meets systems, passionate about transforming bold ideas into rigorous research. My research interest sits at the intersection of Artificial Intelligence, Systems, and Security.

With Professor Remzi Arpaci-Dusseau at ADSL, I build LinuxGuard, which turns Linux kernel bug-fix commits into clang-tidy checkers that catch recurring vulnerabilities. With Professor Yiying Zhang at WukLab, I study practical edge AI systems: measuring CPU/iGPU/NPU tradeoffs, building copy-on-growth and one-ahead NPU specialization for growing agent contexts, and contributing an OpenVINO NPU compiler optimization that reduced full compile time by about 3.4%.

Research

My research focuses on the intersection of systems security, program analysis, and machine learning. I'm particularly interested in automated vulnerability detection, static analysis generation, and applying ML techniques to enhance system reliability and security. Representative projects are highlighted.
