Hi, this is Ruqi Sun.
Undergraduate Researcher · SUSTech CSE
I’m a second-year undergraduate in Computer Science and Engineering at Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), advised by Prof. Yuxin Ma. I am also working with Prof. Dongyu Liu at UC Davis. My research sits at the intersection of human-centered AI and visualization. You can call me Ricky.
I build AI that does more than produce answers: it gives people the power to understand, challenge, and change how those answers are made.
My research interests include:
- Human-centered AI
- Visualization
- AI-augmented creativity
