Wen-Chi (Vicky) Tsai

M.S. in Intelligent Information Systems · Language Technologies Institute, Carnegie Mellon University

I am a master's student in Intelligent Information Systems at Carnegie Mellon University's Language Technologies Institute, graduating December 2027, and a research assistant at NeuLab with Prof. Graham Neubig, working on agent harness and model co-optimization.

I build AI developer tools and workflow automation: test automation and LLM tooling at ASUS, geometric reasoning over AR room scans at RoomMuse, and edge LLM compression at NCU.

I am looking for Summer 2027 software engineering internships in developer tooling, infrastructure, and applied AI.

Off the clock: the gym, a table-tennis table, laps in the pool, K-pop on somewhere in the background, and a trip half-planned in another tab.

Ubi-Media Computing, Pervasive Systems, Algorithms and Networks (Ubi-Media 2026) 2026 Communications in Computer and Information Science, vol. 2940, pp. 242-259

A dual-strategy planner for autonomous inspection of building structures: layered MST-DFS for traversing structured space, with collision-aware A* replanning when the structure blocks the tour. Evaluated in AirSim on real-world building models, generating paths over 5x faster with up to 14% shorter routes, both fully collision-free.
