Research Experience
Assistant Professor at West Virginia University since June 2023; Postdoctoral Scholar at Stanford University from May 2021 to May 2023; Founded Machine Intelligence Lab (MIL@WVU) in August 2023.
Education
Ph.D. in Computer Science from Rochester Institute of Technology, advisor: Linwei Wang; Postdoctoral Scholar at Stanford University, mentors: Zihuai He and James Zou.
Background
Research Interests: Building reliable and trustworthy AI systems, particularly in critical domains such as healthcare. Emphasizes generalization (through self-supervised learning and foundation models), reliability (via out-of-distribution detection), and trustworthiness (through interpretability). Background: Assistant Professor at West Virginia University in the Lane Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering.
