Hi, this is Guanxuan (Grayson) Jiang, and I am a first-year PhD Student in the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou). I am supervised by Prof. Pan Hui and co-supervised by Prof. Yuyang Wang . During my MPhil period, my supervisors are Prof. Pan Hui and Prof. Fugee Tsung.

My research interests lie at the intersection of Human-Computer Interaction and Ubiquitous Computing with a focus on the technical foundations of human-centered intelligent interaction. More specifically, my research focuses on developing computational models to charaterize the dynamic interactions among humans, intelligent systems & devices and real-world environments in which they operate [details].

For representative recent work on these research directions, see Publications.

Previously, I completed my BSc. (Hons) in Computer Science at University of Sheffield and Chinese University of Hong Kong. I also spent time at Peking Univerisity and Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University.
