Yuan-Chi Tseng is the Associate Professor in the Institute of Service Science (since 2018.08) at National Tsing Hua University (NTHU). At National Tsing Hua University, he is taking on relevant positions in innovative design, entrepreneurship education, and digital education transformation. He is the director of Office of Emerging Technology and E-Learning Promotion at the College of Technology Management, Convener of the Innovative Design Group of Tsing Hua Interdisciplinary Program, and CEO of the Tzaiwu College of Residential College of NTHU. He is currently the Convener of the Foresight and Innovative Technology Subprogram of Industrial Engineering and Management Program at the Ministry of Science and Technology to help interdisciplinary cooperation within the IEM program and between all MOST programs. Before joining NTHU in 2018, He was an Associate Professor of Design School at National Cheng Kung University (2011-2018), and was a Rachel C. Atkinson postdoctoral fellow at Smith-Kettlewell Eye Research Institute (SKERI, USA) and a postdoctoral research associate in Human Factors Division, Psychology and Beckman Institute at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign (UIUC, USA). He received his PhD (2005-2009) with research focuses on Cognitive Informatics and Human-Computer Interaction in the Informatics and Manchester Business School from University of Manchester (UK). He earned his B.S. (1993-1997) and M.S. (1997-1999) in Industrial Design at the National Cheng Kung University (Taiwan). He was also a short-term visitor scholar at Medical School of Yale (2010). Research Interest Yuan-Chi is Human-Computer Interaction researcher and designer. He has three major research backgrounds: Design, Human Science, and Human-Computer Interaction. Integrating these research backgrounds, his current research interests are:
Based on deep understanding and research on human behavior and the psychology behind it, he designs and develops interactive products, services, systems, and technologies, particularly mobile applications and digital platforms, to promote human behavior. He is interested in promoting human behaviors, including but not limited to healthy behaviors and group, social, and collaborative behaviors. He adopts quantitative and/or qualitative (or mixed-method) empirical research to study people's perception, cognition, experience, behavior, and bounded decision-making when interacting with technologies in everyday lives to extend our understanding of making technology more useful, usable, and desirable. He studies how to promote human behavior by iteratively designing and verifying the effect and impact of design alternatives (hypotheses) in real life. At the same time, he is also studying how to ensure that these technologies can appropriately affect people's behavior, especially those related to health and community. He also explores how to integrate modern design thinking, tools, processes, methods, and principles into team collaboration technology and interactive platforms to facilitate interdisciplinary teamwork to deliver innovative applications and IT technologies. In particular, we have long-term cooperation with the Taiwan Design Research Institute (TDRI) to apply the results of design tool research to the design work of Taiwanese design practitioners to help the government improve Taiwan's design capabilities. As the advancement of artificial intelligence brings many new design opportunities and challenges to user interface and interaction experience, Yuan-Chi's current research on HCI focuses on designing AI-based technologies to augment human intelligence, facilitate human behavior and promote social and collaborative behaviors. He is particularly interested in the interaction between people and AI technology and believes that technology and people are partnerships. Therefore, when designing an AI-based interactive system, he focuses on designing hybrid intelligence to enable humans and AI to fully use each other's complementary strengths and work together to achieve better results. In addition, he is also exploring how to apply AI technology to mediate people's communication and cooperation (AI-mediated communication and collaboration). Due to Yuan-Chi's interdisciplinary background, his research results have been published in top journals and international conferences in various domains, including medical information, human-computer interaction, artificial intelligence, experimental and cognitive psychology, behavioral neuroscience, medicine, neurology, education, and so forth. These research results also won him the Ta-You Wu Memorial Award from the Ministry of Science and Technology and several paper awards.
Scientific Community Participation and Building Yuan-Chi Tseng actively engages with HCI, CSCW, UX, Medical & Design communities. He currently serves as (selection)
He is currently the Director of the Taiwan Association of Computer-Human Interaction/ACM SIGCHI Taipei Chapter. He is also the supervisor of the Medical Design Association at Taiwan, MDA. Futhermore, he was the Research Consultant and is currently a Contract Researcher of the Taiwan Design Research Institute. In addition, he is highly engaged in serving as reviewer/jury for several Human-Computer Interaction related international conferences, such as ACM's CHI, CSCW, and SIGGRAPH, and Chinese CHI, HCI International, and DeSForM, and scholarly journals, such as International Journal of Human-Computer Studies, Cognitive Science, Journal of Vision, Journal of Experimental Psychology: Applied, Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, ACM Transactions on Interactive Intelligent Systems (TiiS), International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, etc.
