Hi, I am Mouxing Yang (杨谋星). I am currently a Research Fellow / Postdoctoral Fellow at the XLearning research group, College of Computer Science, Sichuan University. I obtained my Ph.D. degree from Sichuan University in Dec. 2025 (ahead of schedule,提前毕业) under the supervision of Prof. Xi Peng (彭玺). My work has received over 2,300 citations and has been recognized among the World’s Top 2% Scientists and the National Postdoctoral Innovation Talents Support Program, which selects only 18 candidates annually in the Computer Science and Technology discipline across China.

I have authored more than 30 papers in tier-1 journals and conferences, including 8 IEEE TPAMI/IJCV papers, 2 ICLR Oral papers (~ top 1% of accepted papers). My work has received over 2,300 citations and has been awarded the World’s Top 2% of Scientists and the National Postdoctoral Innovation Talents Support Program. My research mainly focuses on Reliable Multi-modal Learning, Multi-modal Test-time Computing/Adaptation and Agentic AI in the Wild, with contribution in:

  • Reliable Multi-modal Learning: I have worked extensively on tackling challenges such as noisy correspondence (NeurIPS’26, ICLR’26, TPAMI’26, TPAMI’25, IJCV’24, TIP’24, NeurIPS’24, ICCV’23, etc.) and missing modality (TPAMI’26, AAAI’24, TPAMI’23, TPAMI’22) in the image-text, multi-view data. For more insights on noisy correspondence, please refer to our repository: Noisy Correspondence Summary.
  • Multi-modal Test-time Computing/Adaptation: I believe the future of foundation models lies in self-evolving systems. My recent research focuses on unleashing their potential during inference by addressing reliability challenges in dynamic environments, with applications in multi-modal recognition (ICLR’24, AAAI’26), cross-modal retrieval (TPAMI’26, ICLR’25, ICML’25), and multi-modal CoT (ICML’26).
  • Agentic AI in the Wild: I am currently exploring how to extend LLM agents to diverse, open-ended real-world scenarios, with recent work on skill retrieval, software engineering, and efficient coding agents. More studies are underway.
