Keynote Presentation
Empowering Pedagogical Agents through Foundational Models for Social Learning
Ying (Gina) Tang, Rowan University

Ying (Gina) Tang is a Professor at the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, Rowan University, Glassboro, New Jersey. Her research centers on the design, control, and optimization of discrete event systems (DES) with respect to their complexity, uncertainty and performance via mathematical modeling, statistical analysis, and computational visualization. Her current work involves two major thrust areas. One is Intelligent Game-based Learning Environments, where machine learning and adaptive reasoning techniques are fused with mixed reality technologies to offer personalized guided training. The other is Sustainable Production and Service Automation, where efficient models and algorithms are designed to help align manufacturers and service providers’ decisions with environmental considerations (e.g., energy consumption and electronic waste, etc.) at every stage of the entire life cycle of products from the conceptual design to delivery to consumers, and ultimately to the end-of-life disposal. Tang’s work has been continuously supported by NSF, EPA, DOT, private foundations, and industry. Her work has resulted in two patents, and over 200 scientific publications.
