Hello :)

My name is Keyang Xuan and I’m a graduate student at Siebel School of Computing and Data Science, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, advised by Jiaxuan You. My research generally revolves around building intelligent agents with social and collaborative intelligence. I build computational frameworks that enable language agents to facilitate scientific discovery, adapt to complex social interactions, and operate under efficiency and safety constraints.

Before UIUC, I spent wonderful four years in University of Minnesota, where I am forunate to worked with Vipin Kumar and Kangjie Lu.

I’m always enthusiastic about collaborating with researchers from diverse fields. If you’re interested in working together, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Research Interest

Social Intelligence: Enable AI agents to understand and simulate human social behaviors and interaction patterns, allowing them to engage naturally with human expectations in diverse social contexts

Collaborative Intelligence: Design multi-agent systems that learn to cooperate and coordinate, both with humans and among themselves, to accomplish complex, real-world tasks collectively
