About Me
Hi, I'm Zixuan Wang — a researcher driven by the potential of artificial intelligence to improve real-world challenges in health, robots, sustainability, and human-computer interaction.
I'm currently pursuing a Master's in AI for Health, which jointly participated by Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, University van Amsterdam, and Amsterdam UMC.
My work centers around intelligent systems for healthcare, reinforcement learning, machine learning, robot simulation, and immersive technologies like virtual reality. My journey has taken me from hyperparameter optimization for neuroevolutionary algorithms, multimodal image fusion for medical imaging, and uncertainty-aware models that enhance decision-making in critical settings.
I'm passionate about building adaptive, reliable, and human-centered AI solutions. Welcome to my website — a space where health, intelligence, and innovation converge.
