Yutong Xie 谢雨桐
I am a Ph.D. candidate in the School of Information at the University of Michigan, where I work with Prof. Qiaozhu Mei as a member of the Foreseer Research Group. Prior to this, I received my Bachelor's degree from Shanghai Jiao Tong University as a member of the ACM Honors Class, where I was advised by Prof. Yong Yu and Prof. Weinan Zhang.
I have a general research interest in exploring the potential of AI to support and drive innovation, with a specific focus on its applications in both scientific research (AI for science) and creative processes (AI for creativity). My research encompasses three key aspects: identifying the innovation space ("What to innovate"), devising computational methodologies for innovative breakthroughs ("How to innovate"), and establishing robust criteria for evaluating these innovations ("How to evaluate"). A significant part of my work involves examining the synergistic relationship between AI and human intelligence in the innovation landscape. Additionally, I am keenly interested in the application and enhancement of large language models, particularly in the context of fostering effective human-AI collaboration for innovative endeavors.
