Portrait of Zekun Wu

I'm a Ph.D. student working at the Computational Interaction Lab, Saarland University, Germany. My research focuses on studying eye-tracking in human-AI interaction system. I also have prior research experience in human reliability analysis and data visualization.

Research

  • Eye-tracking Analyzing visual attention patterns and gaze behavior to understand how users interact with digital interfaces and AI systems.
  • Human-AI Collaboration Investigating how humans can effectively collaborate with AI systems, focusing on trust, reliance, and decision-making processes.
  • Human Reliability Analysis Studying human performance and reliability in complex systems to improve safety and efficiency in human-machine interactions.

Latest News

  • Apr 2026 Built and launched GazeTrac, a real-time system combining eye tracking with application-level attention analytics. Check it here.
