 Thank you dear visitor for stopping by! I am a final year PhD candidate at University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. My research focus and interests are at the intersection of Machine Learning and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI).
 
-I develop adaptive AI systems that <span style="color:deeppink;">enable people to reason under risk and uncertainty in complex decision-making scenarios</span>. For example, enabling decision-makers in education to conduct accurate assessments of students for admissions and course waivers or designing adaptive meeting recap that considers meeting participant's goals and expertise to provide them the most relevant information. I borrow from <span style="color: deeppink">cognitive science and probabilistic machine learning</span> to design AI with experts' mental model to improve Human-AI interaction. I bring in strong computational and model building skills from my prior industry experience to build systems for Human-AI interaction and my training in HCI allows me to conduct real world study for improving Human-AI interaction. For example., I recently built a bayesian network from a massive dataset of 3M records to model personal information and using it to study personalization - privacy trade-off. The following three broad directions describe my research focus and future vision.

For example, in education, inferring students' conceptual gaps requires reconstructing their mental models from their learning trajectories, not just identifying surface-level mistakes.

By modeling people's latent cognitive states, my methods <span style="color: deeppink">improve reasoning of AI systems beyond observed behaviors</span>, improving overall learning efficiency and accuracy.

 1. <b>Desiging computational models that can understand and improve expert decision-making</b> <span style="color:deeppink;">(AI to critique not obey)</span>: Furthering the design of computational models that can <span style="color:deeppink;">understand and reason about experts' decision processes, and how they reason about and balance principles in their decisions</span>. For example, understanding how instructors balance providing the answer versus guiding students in tutoring scenarios.
