This is Jianben (Jessie) HE, a third-year Ph.D candidate at VisLab, the Department of Computer Science and Engineering of Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), supervised by Prof. QU Huamin and Prof. ZHANG Qian. My research interests lie in the intersection of data visualization (VIS), human computer interaction (HCI) and multimodal machine learning. I design and develop AI-powered interactive visual interfaces following human-centered design process to promote human-AI collaboration for multimodal data (e.g., videos) exploration, understanding and analytics.

Before joining HKUST, I obtained my Bachelor degree in Electronics and Information Engineering from Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST). I have visited Stanford University and the University of Hong Kong during my undergrduate study. I am a food & fitness enthusiast.
