I am a full professor (Chair for Software Engineering & AI) in Department of Computer Science, Technical University of Munich, Heilbronn, Germany, and also an adjunct professor in Monash University, Australia. I obtained my PhD from Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore. When pronouncing my first name, "Chun-yang" sounds like "train-young" which is exactly my job. My research focuses on Software Engineering, Deep Learning and Human-Computer Interaction. Specifically, I apply AI/ML, NLP and light-weight program analysis technology in the following directions:
