Haoyi Qiu
I am a first-year PhD student in Computer Science at UCLA advised by Prof. Nanyun (Violet) Peng. Before, I graduated from the University of Michigan, with a B.S. in Computer Science and Math, advised by Prof. Joyce Y. Chai.
My research focuses on making AI systems more trustworthy by improving their factuality, safety, and social alignment across modalities.
