Aliyah R. Hsu

Hi there! I am an Applied Scientist at Salesforce AI, dedicated to advancing the capabilities of autonomous systems. My current work focuses on agentic workflow optimizations, reasoning model fine-tuning, and engineering RL frameworks to enable continuous learning in agents.

Previously, I was a PhD student at UC Berkeley’s EECS department and BAIR, advised by Bin Yu. My doctoral research spanned NLP, interpretability, and AI-assisted clinical decision-making, with a core focus on building trust and safety for neural networks in high-stakes domains.
