CV

Hi, I’m Shuyan, a PhD student of the Language Technologies Institute in the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University. I am fortunately advised by Professor Graham Neubig. Before that, I received my bachelor degree in Computer Science and Technology from Harbin Institute of Technology.

My research interests lie in natural language command and control. My goal is to create AI agents that would free human beings from tedious tasks and aid them in better decision makings. For example, I created DocPrompting that reads code docs and writes code, so that we don’t have to.

I am best reached by email at shuyanzh@cs.cmu.edu.
