Hi, I’m Mingyi Deng (邓明熠), an MStat student at the University of Hong Kong. I received my B.S. in Statistics from Renmin University of China.
I work on LLM-based agents, especially interactive and user-centric agents: how agents should recognize ambiguity, ask effective clarifying questions, and learn from multi-turn user feedback. I’m currently an LLM Algorithm Research Intern at Alibaba.
