I explore how peoplecreate with AI.

Hello, I am Yuying Tang, a visiting Ph.D. student at Imperial College London and the University of the Arts London, where I collaborate with Professor Sebastian Deterding and Professor Rebecca Fiebrink. I am also a Ph.D. candidate at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), advised by Professor Huamin Qu and Associate Professor Xiaojuan Ma. Prior to joining HKUST, I worked with Professor Antti Oulasvirta at Aalto University in Finland.

My research focuses on Human–Computer Interaction and Human–AI Interaction for creativity and storytelling.
