Research Scientist, School of Computing and Information Systems

Singapore

Dr. Ratnadira Widyasari received her Ph.D. from Singapore Management University, where she was advised by ACM/IEEE Fellow Professor David Lo. Her research focuses on advancing software quality assurance through automation and explainability. She has led and conducted research resulting in publications in top-tier venues, including conferences such as ICSE and FSE, and journals such as TSE, TOSEM, and EMSE. Her work has been deployed in collaboration with a government agency, where it uncovered previously unknown security vulnerabilities, several of which have been assigned CVE IDs.
