Caroline Lemieux

Caroline Lemieux is an Assistant Professor at the University of British Columbia, specializing in automated software testing and reliability. Her research develops methods for testing, debugging, and improving software correctness through techniques like fuzz testing and program synthesis. She holds a Ph.D. from UC Berkeley advised by Koushik Sen and a B.Sc. in Computer Science and Mathematics from UBC.

Research Interests: Dr. Lemieux's work focuses on:

• Fuzz testing for vulnerability detection
• Program synthesis using AI/ML approaches
• Property-based testing frameworks
• Automated debugging and specification mining
• Applications of reinforcement learning in test generation

Publication Trends: Her recent papers explore large language models for test generation, fuzzing strategies in CI/CD environments, and neural-backed program synthesis. Work consistently bridges theoretical computer science with practical software engineering challenges.
