Summary
Xi Yang is a Senior Data Scientist with dual Ph.D.s in Computer Science & Engineering and Chemical Engineering and nine years of experience translating research-grade methods into production ML systems. Based in Shenzhen, he currently builds and deploys agentic LLM applications at Aspen Technology, specializing in fine-tuning (SFT, RL), PEFT, RAG, tool-integrated reasoning, and LLMOps for domain-specific tasks. His background spans physical modeling and thermodynamics to transportation and sensor data mining, giving him uncommon strength at the intersection of physics-informed models and modern deep learning. Proficient in Python, TensorFlow, PyTorch and Keras, he focuses recently on low-level vision and AIGC research as reflected in his GitHub activity. A published researcher with top-tier conference and journal papers, he combines rigorous academic training with pragmatic production deployment experience. Colleagues describe him as a collaborative problem-solver who bridges multidisciplinary teams and complex technical domains.
