William Huang

I am a PhD Student in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) advised by Professor Yang Zhang in the Human-Centered Computing & Intelligent Sensing Lab.

My research interests lie at the intersection between Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Artificial Intelligence (AI). I am interested in how we can leverage human-centric digital twins to circumvent the constraints of traditional data collection methods and create more personalized AI and sensing technologies. My work spans multiple application domains including but not limited to accessibility, augmented/virtual reality, and health sensing.

Previously, I worked at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory as an Applied Decision Systems and Analytics Intern, Intel 3DAT as a Biomechanics Co-Op, UCLA Athletics as the Data Analytics and Sports Science Project Lead, and the National Institutes of Health – Office of AIDS Research as a Data Science Fellow.

When I am not working or writing a website bio, I am probably modding consoles and controllers, training for my next powerlifting meeting, or at the arcade.
