Ting-Yao 'Edward' Hsu (許庭耀)
Ph.D. Student
School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science
Penn State University
Hello! I am a final-year Ph.D. candidate at Penn State University working across Vision-to-Language, NLP, and HCI. I am fortunate to be advised by Dr. Ting-hao (Kenneth) Huang and Dr. C. Lee Giles. Prior to Penn State, I received B.S. in CS from National Tsing Hua University. Before Ph.D., I spent great time working with Dr. Shang-Hong Lai in CVLAB and Dr. Yuan-Hao Chang (Johnson Chang) in Academia Sinica.
My research goal is to develop interactive and intelligent systems that enhance everyday human activities. Currently, I am focusing on tasks that integrate vision and language, involving understanding, generation, and evaluation through multimodal learning and Large Language Models (LLMs). I am also interested in improving multimodal/LLM agents and alignment to optimize human-machine interactions.
I am currently on the job market and looking for full-time industry positions..
