🧑‍💻 About Me

Greetings!👋 I’m Jianshu Zhang (张鉴殊), a 4th year undergraduate at the Wuhan University and an incoming CS PhD at the Northwestern University. My long-term goal is to enhance the interaction between humans and computer by focusing on three key attributes: (i) reliability, (ii) multimodality, and (iii) adaptability.
