Chang Xiao (肖昶)

I’m a Research Scientist at Adobe Research. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Columbia University. My research lie at the intersection of Human-Computer Interaction, applied AI/ML, LLMs and AR/VR. I am particularly interested in leveraging computational method and AI to create intuitive, accessible and human-centered interaction techniques, while also explore novel ways in which AI can reshape creativity, productivity, and everyday experiences. I am a recipient of the Snap Research Fellowship (2019) and the Cheung-Kong Innovation Doctoral Fellowship.

My research outcomes have had various impacts beyond academia. At Adobe, I have presented my research twice during Adobe’s annual event, Summit Sneaks (2022, 2024). These features have also been integrated into Adobe Commerce’s product, the AR Viewer and Adobe Experience Platform. My past work has received more than 50 media interviews and coverages, including by CNN, Adweek, CACM, and IEEE Spectrum. I also hold 10+ US patents.

Here is my CV.
