Hi! I'm Suyu (Michael) Ye, a Junior at Johns Hopkins University, advised by Professor Tianmin Shu. I'm double majoring in Computer Science and Applied Maths and Statistics, supported by a National Merit Scholarship.

My research interests are Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), multi-modal learning, and multi-agent systems. I'm particularly interested in building AI systems that interact naturally, understand complex social and multi-modal contexts, and collaborate effectively with people. My goal is to develop safe and reliable AI systems that profoundly enhance daily life.
