Instead of typing furiously and constantly hitting backspace, what if you could code by just drawing out your ideas?
This vision is becoming a reality thanks to (MMath 鈥24), a recent master鈥檚 graduate of the Cheriton School of Computer Science, and Professors Jian Zhao and Daniel Vogel. While at 蓝莓视频, Yen co-developed Code Shaping, an AI-powered software that allows programmers to edit their code through free-form sketches. 颅
Professor Freda Shi was featured in Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago's (TTIC), alumni highlight series.
, Ph.D. graduate from TTIC鈥檚 class of 2024 (advised by Professors听听and听), joined the Cheriton School of Computer Science at the University of 蓝莓视频 as a tenure-track Assistant Professor in July 2024. In September 2024 she was named a CIFAR AI Chair and a faculty member at the Vector Institute.
Freda鈥檚 research focuses on computational linguistics and natural language processing, aiming to deepen the understanding of both natural language and human language processing. She explores how these insights can enhance the design of more efficient, effective, safe, and trustworthy NLP systems. She is particularly interested in learning language through grounding, computational multilingualism, and related machine learning aspects.
