Yuxing Lu 陆宇星

I am a Ph.D. student in the GT-Emory-PKU Joint Program. My research focuses on language models, AI agents, and knowledge-guided machine learning for biomedical and clinical applications.

At Georgia Tech, I work with Prof. May Dongmei Wang; at Peking University, I am advised by Dr. Jinzhuo Wang and Prof. Kang Zhang. My recent work includes LLM agents and evaluation, retrieval and knowledge-graph methods, multi-omics and cfDNA modeling, and clinical prediction.

Research Overview

I build self-improving and knowledge-grounded agents, then evaluate them in biomedical and other high-stakes environments where evidence, reliability, and domain constraints matter.

Language models and agents

I develop procedural memory, self-evolution, retrieval, and multi-agent routing methods for language-model systems.

  • Self-improving agents and Procedural Graph memory
  • Retrieval, knowledge graphs, and collaborative reasoning
  • Benchmarks for reliable long-horizon behavior
