I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at Texas Christian University and the Director of the NextGen AI Research Lab. I earned my Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering and bring experience spanning both academic research and applied, real-world systems.

I am particularly interested in developing AI, ML, and LLM driven methods for intelligent, trustworthy, and adaptive systems, with applications spanning cybersecurity, system optimization, and decision support. My research investigates adversarial robustness, secure and reliable learning, intelligent threat detection, and data-driven network management, while also exploring how AI can improve efficiency, resilience, and scalability in complex, real-world environments such as education, healthcare, and next-generation communication systems.

I am actively seeking motivated undergraduate and graduate students interested in broad areas of AI, LLMs, and cybersecurity.
In addition, I am recruiting fully funded Ph.D. students for Fall 2026. If you are interested, please email me at robin.chataut@tcu.edu with your resume and a brief statement of research interests.
