👋 About Me
Hi, I am Xucheng Zhuang, an undergraduate student majoring in Software Engineering at the College of Software Engineering, Sichuan University.
My current interests are in large language models, especially reasoning, memory, multimodal models, and agent systems.
Alongside research, I also work on practical engineering projects to strengthen my implementation and system design skills.

🔬 Research Experience
Jailbreak Attacks on Large Language Models
Role: Project Leader
Period: Oct 2024 - Sep 2025
Project Type: University-Level Undergraduate Innovation Project
This project studies security risks and adversarial vulnerabilities in large language models. I conducted a focused literature review on jailbreak attacks and defense strategies, then evaluated mainstream models under a range of prompt-based attack settings.
To improve attack efficiency and transferability, I further designed a reinforcement-learning-based prompt optimization framework for generating stronger adversarial prompts.
Current outcomes: Survey manuscript; one invention patent.
Scenario-Controlled Image Generation for Animal Recognition
Role: Core Team Member
Period: Oct 2024 - Sep 2025
Project Type: National-Level Undergraduate Innovation Project
This project explores controllable image generation methods and how synthetic data can improve animal recognition performance. I participated in the design of generation pipelines under scenario constraints and helped evaluate their usefulness for downstream recognition tasks.
🛠 Selected Projects
CartoonGen
Tech Stack: Python, TensorFlow, Keras, GANs, Image Generation
A cartoon avatar generation project based on TensorFlow/Keras and the Google CartoonSet dataset. The project covers the full workflow of GAN-based image generation, including data preprocessing, generator and discriminator design, adversarial training, sample visualization, and inference. It demonstrates my interest in generative models and hands-on experimentation with image synthesis systems.
