About Me

Hi, my name is Yuheng Yang (杨宇恒). I am a junior (third-year) undergraduate student at Westlake University, majoring in Artificial Intelligence. My research interests focus on Agents/LLMs.

Currently, I am a Research Engineer at Xiaomi LLM-Core Team, working on the MiMo series — most recently MiMo-V2.6, which we just open-sourced. Previously, I interned at UIUC with Prof. Jiaxuan You and at UC Merced with Prof. Yiwei Wang. I have also been a member of the Westlake AGI Lab since 2024, advised by Prof. Chi Zhang.

Open to collaborations: I am always interested in potential research collaborations. Please feel free to reach out via email.
