Presenting Research at Asean IVO Forum 2019


On November 20th, 2019,
I was very humbled being able to present the result of my Artificial Intelligence Laboratory research, titled “EDGAN: Disguising Text as an Image” in a prestigious event of ASEAN IVO Forum 2019.

The ASEAN IVO is a global alliance of institutes and universities in the ASEAN region and Japan. The organization seeks and identifies strategic ICT research areas in the ASEAN region and supports collaborative projects in them.

Presenting Research

The research I presented there titled “EDGAN: Disguising Text as an Image”. As it is not clear enough, it’s about hiding text into images. The difference here is that we use Generative Adversarial Network to do the job.
