I am Runyang You, a first-year Ph.D. student at the NLP Group of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, co-supervised by Prof. Wenjie Li (Maggie) and Prof. Yongqi Li. I received my M.Sc. from University College London (2023) and my B.Sc. from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (2022).
Research
My work spans two directions:
-
LLM Reasoning — I study how reasoning can make language models both more efficient and more useful: accelerating inference with latent reasoning (ACL'26) , and extending reasoning into recommendation (NeurIPS'25).
-
LLM Agents — I investigate whether LLM agents can act as reliable judges for evaluating complex AI systems (arXiv'26).
📬 I am open to collaborations and discussions. Please feel free to reach out if you are interested in my research or related topics.
