Xiaoyu Xie is a research scientist and PhD candidate at Northwestern University with 9 years of experience applying machine learning and deep learning to scientific problems, digital twins, and computer vision. She has bridged academia and industry—building visual spam detection systems in production and developing scientific ML libraries like PyDimension for discovering ODE/PDE scaling laws from scarce data. Her work spans surrogate modeling, image and statistical analysis, and high-performance computing, and includes publications in Nature Communications and NPJ Computational Materials. At Meta and through internships at AWS and MERL she has focused on scalable model deployment and acceleration workflows. Colleagues describe her as a strong communicator who thrives in interdisciplinary teams and turns physics-informed insights into practical, open-source tools.
