Biography

Martin Gubri is a Postdoctoral Researcher at Parameter Lab in Tübingen, Germany. His research interests lie in trustworthy AI, including adversarial machine learning, privacy, and uncertainty.

He holds a PhD degree in computer science from the University of Luxembourg. His PhD thesis focuses on analyzing the transferability of adversarial examples from the surrogate weight space of DNNs. He is a data scientist graduated from Ensae ParisTech and a statistician graduated from Toulouse School of Economics.
