Tianyi Wang

Undergraduate Researcher ยท BUPT

I work on post-training algorithms for large language models, with a focus on reinforcement learning and reliable optimization.

My current research explores stable and efficient learning for long-horizon reasoning. I am also interested in optimizer design, implementation, and reproducible machine learning systems.

Currently

I have joined ByteDance Seed for research, following my research internship at Tencent Youtu.
