Dr. Yuan Tian is an Assistant Professor in the School of Computing at Queen's University, Canada. Before joining Queen's, Yuan was a data scientist at the Living Analytics Research Centre (LARC), Singapore Management University (SMU). She received her Ph.D. degree in Information Systems from SMU in May 2017, under the supervision of Prof. David Lo (IEEE fellow). Yuan visited Carnegie Mellon University in 2015 and Inria Paris in 2013.

Yuan leads the RISE research lab which develops reliable and intelligent support for software development. RISE’s current research topics include automatic technical debt and bug management, pull-based code change management, software engineering for data science and machine learning workflows, and social science in software engineering.

Yuan is actively looking for self-motivated master/PhD students who are excited about data mining and software engineering (application dued for Fall 2023 MSc/PhD).
