Assistant Prof @HKUSTCSE @HKUST. CS PhD @gtcomputing. I study data visualization & HCI, in particular human AI collaborative guidance systems.
❓Do people’s perception & utilization of guidance change during analysis if they know its source, e.g., if it came from 🤖AI, 🧙Human Expert, or 🧑🤝🧑Group of Human Analysts? ✨Thrilled to share our new #iui2025 paper, presented last week at ACM IUI in Cagliari, Italy. (1/6)

And that's a wrap! The workshop concluded with an engaging panel discussion covering different aspects of agentic AI from provenance and explaiability to trust and human interaction. A huge thanks to the panelists @estevamhruschka @arpitnarechania @kbeedkar & Ziawash Abedjan.
[4/n] We also have an exciting panel where the keynote spearkers will be joined by @estevamhruschka, @arpitnarechania, and @kbeedkar to discuss opportunities and challenges in developing scalable, responsible, and reliable application of agentic systems.
From Hokie🦃 to Yellow Jacket🐝! @VT_CS recognized @EndertAlex with its 2025 Distinguished Early Career Alumni Award. Alex has been with us for 12 years, and this award recognizing his achievements is well-deserved! @gtcomputing @virginia_tech bit.ly/3HK4BVD
Come join us tomorrow at the First Workshop on Data-AI Systems (DAIS), alongside #ICDE2025 at Hong Kong PolyU. Thanks for the invitation to be a panelist and session chair, @subZero_saj and @MegagonLabs!
The DAIS Worshop@ICDE2025 is less than 24hrs away. If you are attending ICDE, do attend this very timely workshop aimed at exploring innovative approaches towards building compound AI systems in the era of #LLMs. We have an amazing cast of keynote speakers and panelists 🧵
I am seeking 1-2 PhD students and 1-2 postdocs to work on theory in HCI, say, how the field uses theory, how to make theories more impactful in HCI, and how to develop better technology w theory. DL is June 9th, see shorturl.at/4FTkQ and shorturl.at/6DlA5. 🙏 🇩🇰🎓😃
Excited to share our upcoming IUI paper called "A Design Space of Behavior Change Interventions for Responsible Data Science" -- we look at how behavior change theories from cognitive and clinical psych can inform responsible data science. 📖Read it here: emilywall.github.io/media/papers/B…
Announcing India 🇮🇳 ML tracker, an open source @lossfunk project built by @HiSohan to track papers accepted at top AI/ML conferences by Indian authors.
The students in our fall Data Visualization course created a great set of projects again. Topics included hip-hop music, fish populations, the Office TV show, MLB rules, national parks, UFOs, climate change, and many other. Website: faculty.cc.gatech.edu/~stasko/6730/P…
