I am Yixuan (Even) Xu (徐翊轩), a third-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at CSD, Carnegie Mellon University, where I am fortunate to be co-advised by Professor Zico Kolter and Professor Fei Fang. Prior to that, I completed my Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Science and Technology at Yao Class, Tsinghua University.
My research focuses on post-training algorithms for foundational models. Previously, I also worked on algorithmic game theory and peer review. See my CV, publications and google scholar for more details.
Besides research, I used to actively participate in competitive programming. See my CV for selected awards in OI, ICPC and CCPC. You can also find me in Codeforces, Atcoder and Project Euler.
