SUMMARY:OR Seminar: Renran Tian
DESCRIPTION:Join us in welcoming ISE’s own Renran Tian\, assistant professor\, as he discusses human–AI driving interactions. Alums and friends of the program are always welcome. \nDid You Miss It?\nDon’t worry\, you can watch it here.\nPasscode: dLQ*2Dj8 \nTitle and Abstract\nArtificial Social Intelligence in Automated Driving \nAutonomous vehicles (AVs) must operate as technical systems and as active participants in complex social traffic environments. \nFocus\nThis seminar introduces Artificial Social Intelligence as a foundation for enabling AVs to interpret\, predict\, and engage in social interactions with human road users. \nResearch Highlights\nGrounded in explainable AI\, cognitive AI\, and human computation\, my work on human–AI interaction addresses: \n\nOn the road: pedestrian behavior prediction and intention modeling.\nInside the vehicle: transparent and interpretable decision-making for passengers.\n\nLooking Ahead\nThe seminar concludes with open questions on how to incorporate dual-process decision-making and metacognition into AVs and approaches for developing user-centered AI explanations. \nBiography\nRenran Tian is an Assistant Professor in the Edward P. Fitts Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at North Carolina State University. He earned his Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering from Purdue University in 2013\, after completing his master’s and bachelor’s degrees at Tsinghua University in Beijing\, China. \nTian has published more than 70 refereed research papers. His research focuses on Human-Centered Computing\, Human–AI Interaction\, Cognitive Psychology\, and Deep Learning. \nHonors and Awards \n\nInstitutional Lead Award\, IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Society (2025)\nNSF CAREER Award (2022)\nBest Paper Award\, HCI International (2019)
