Jingwen Bai
PhD Student in Computer Science at the National University of Singapore
I am a
PhD student in Computer Science
at the
National University of Singapore, and a member of the
NUS Ubicomp Lab, advised by
Prof. Brian Y. Lim. My
research lies at the intersection of
Human Centered AI,
Explainable AI (XAI), and
human-AI collaboration, with
a focus on designing systems and tools that improve human and AI
understanding, performance, and learning.
Previously, I received my
M.Eng.
in Computer Technology and
B.Eng. in Software
Engineering from
Peking University, and
worked on HCI and AI projects with collaborators at
SUSTech,
Peking University, and
the University of Waterloo.
Research
Research Themes
My work broadly explores how AI systems can be made easier to understand, evaluate, and use in human-centered settings.
02
Explainable AI
Investigating how AI systems can better communicate their reasoning and become more understandable, transparent, and useful to people.
03
Interactive AI Systems
Building systems that support collaboration, learning, and communication between people and AI.
