Xujing currently works as a Research Assistant at Georgia Tech’s AI Transformation \(AX\) Center, advised by Professor Seung\-Kyum Choi, researching vision\-language models on edge hardware for industrial perception\. Xujing also works as a Software Engineer at Voqo AI, where they are one of four engineers on a 10\-person team and contribute to AI evaluation and retrieval for real\-time voice agents\. Their strengths include edge computing, robotics, full\-stack development, infrastructure, machine learning, research, communication, and software development\. Earlier research at Northwestern University involved designing and evaluating a heuristic\-based hyperparameter\-optimization algorithm that achieved higher efficiency than traditional grid and random search approaches this work resulted in an unpublished written research paper\. Xujing has also built a full\-stack scheduling website used by more than 50 teachers and students at The King’s School, where they tutored students one\-on\-one in IST subjects\. Their professional summary is: “Minimising loss\.” ## Services - Edge Computing - Robotics - Full\-Stack Development - Infrastructure - Communication - Research Skills - Machine Learning ## Highlights - Conducts research on vision\-language models running on edge hardware for industrial perception at Georgia Tech’s AI Transformation \(AX\) Center\. - Works at the Georgia Tech AI Transformation \(AX\) Center under the advisement of Professor Seung\-Kyum Choi\. - Serves as a Software Engineer at Voqo AI, one of four engineers on a 10\-person team\. - Contributes AI evaluation and retrieval work for real\-time voice agents at Voqo AI\. - Designed and evaluated a heuristic\-based hyperparameter\-optimization algorithm at Northwestern University\. - Achieved higher optimization efficiency with the Northwestern heuristic approach than traditional grid and random search approaches\. - Produced an unpublished written research paper from the Northwestern University hyperparameter\-optimization work\. - Built a full\-stack scheduling website at The King’s School that was used by more than 50 teachers and students\. - Provided one\-on\-one tutoring in IST subjects at The King’s School\. - Pursues a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science—Intelligence and System Architecture at Georgia Institute of Technology\. - Completed Artificial Intelligence study through Stanford Pre\-Collegiate Summer Institutes\. - Participated in Innovations in Science & Technology through Yale Young Global Scholars\. ## Experience - **Research Assistant at Georgia Institute of Technology** (2026\-08\-01–present) — Georgia Tech AI Transformation \(AX\) Center \- advised by Prof\.
