About Me

Hi, I'm Xiaoyu Fan, an undergraduate student at Huazhong University of Science and Technology, currently in my third year of Intelligent Medical Engineering.

I am currently a research assistant at CAI, THU, advised by Prof. Tianyu Liu. Previously, I was visiting at the DeepDelta Lab, SJTU, advised by Prof. Shaobo Cui; and undertook research training with the DeepKW team at the School of Journalism and Information Communication, HUST, advised by Prof. Ran Wang.

My research centers on Human-AI Synergy, focusing on communication and co-operation amongst multi-agents, controllable (creative) language generation, collaboration between AI & human scientists, and the training & evaluation of foundational models at various stages. Additionally, I'm passionate about exploring large-scale ML driven by a vast amount of high-quality data, and even more curious about uncovering the mechanistic interpretability behind the empirical phenomena: why models train, where behaviors emerge, and when scaling rules break.

Research Interest: Multi-agent Systems, AI4Medicine, and Representation Learning.

Open to opportunities: I am actively looking for 27 Spring Research Intern Opportunities (academia/industry) and 28 Fall PhD Positions.

Selected Projects

Omission-based Deception Fake News Detection Dataset Apr. 2026

Constructed a benchmark dataset of approximately 4,000 samples for detecting omission-based deception in LLMs, with hierarchical labels and six fine-grained categories. Implemented data generation scripts and evaluation workflows supporting SFT and prompting-based approaches.

Image Segmentation and Region Coloring System Mar. 2026 - Apr. 2026

Developed an end-to-end C++ / OpenCV image processing pipeline for seed generation, watershed segmentation, region adjacency graph construction, and graph coloring, achieving second-level runtime on 600 x 600 images with about 1,000 seeds.
