Bingchen Wang

I am an independent researcher working at the intersection of artificial intelligence and economics. My work focuses on incentive design for collaborative and decentralized machine learning; preference alignment through preference reconstruction; and bias and mitigation in AI-mediated decision systems, especially in labour market contexts.

Previously, I completed a MPhil in Economics from Oxford, where I was extremely fortunate to work with Prof David Hendry and Prof Jennifer Castle. Prior to Oxford, I earned a B.A. in mathematics-statistics from Columbia University and a B.Sc. (Hons) in computing mathematics from CityU Hong Kong.

Beyond research, I am deeply enamoured with art and cultures, often drawing inspirations in the hidden corners of cities. This passion, dovetailed with my academic interests, culminates in a long-standing hobby of reflecting on societal dynamics, which occasionally inspires me to pen opinion pieces on pressing issues for local newspapers.
