Ziyang Guo

Hello! I’m Ziyang Guo. I’m a thrid-year PhD student in Computer Science at Northwestern University. Currently, I work with Professor Jessica Hullman at MU Colective. Previously, I received my B.S. in Computer Science from Zhejiang University.

My research develop theoretical frameworks for reasoning about information-assisted behavior such as reliance in human-AI decision making. My work grounds in human-computer interaction, statistical decision theory and machine learning.
