Ph.D. student in Computer Engineering at Boston University, supervised by Prof. Vijaya Kolachalama. Developing and deploying pathways to accelerate commercial adoption of translation-ready AI across science, medicine, and human-machine interaction.

Resume
(0.1) Bio

Prior to BU, Shuyue received an M.Phil. in Computer Science (2023) from City University of Hong Kong, supervised by Prof. Shiqi Wang, and a B.Eng. in Intelligence Science and Technology (2020) from Northeast Electric Power University, supervised by Prof. Yimin Hou. His Ph.D. research builds trustworthy autonomous AI systems grounded in real-world evidence — spanning retrieval, attributional, modality/sequence, temporal, and physical/spatial grounding — with the long-term goal of Safe, Extensible, and Cost-efficient (SEC) AGI for science, medicine, and human-machine interaction.
