Hi, I'm Charlie Niu

Welcome to the portfolio page of Charlie. I am currently a junior at Friends' Central School ('2028). Generally, I am an artist, student, explorer, and creator. Lately, I am exploring my journey through the world of computer science and cybersecurity. Based on my previous projects, I am building a detection algorithm that can be deployed on every website to identify AI traffic from human traffic.

Thanks for stopping by — I hope you enjoy exploring this website and find my experience interesting. I'm on my way to my dreams, and hopefully not missing any interesting scenes along the way.

Detecting the Long Tail — Behavioral Fingerprinting of Non-Frontier AI Agents

Active

A research study asking whether AI-agent detectors trained on frontier models generalize to non-frontier, custom-built agents — and whether agent decision latency offers a detection channel that timing-jitter defenses can't reach.
