I am Junjie Yang, currently pursuing a master’s degree in Applied Machine Learning at the University of Maryland, College Park. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and Engineering from South China University of Technology (SCUT), where I studied in the English-Taught Innovation Class. My academic work has included collaborations with Weiwei Lin, Changmiao Wang, and Yao Wan.
My research interests include computer vision, medical AI, 3D vision, and agentic reinforcement learning.
Selected Projects
TEF: Count Evidence, Not Sentences
Tempered Evidence Fusion (TEF) is a training-free method for measuring value orientations in long text. It gives more weight to decisive sentence-level LLM judgments and discounts uncertain ones. The work also introduces MIND, a benchmark of 8,358 Chinese and English posts across six value dimensions.
VERPO: Verified Evidence Regularized Policy Optimization
VERPO turns evidence-conditioned guidance into reward-aligned token-level credit assignment for reinforcement learning. Its Fisher-aware controller and Fisher Evidence Contrast help stabilize optimization while retaining outcome-level rewards.
MedGEN-Bench: A Contextually Entangled Benchmark
MedGEN-Bench is a benchmark for open-ended multimodal medical generation. The reported evaluation snapshot contains 6,422 expert-reviewed image–text pairs spanning six canonical imaging modalities, 15 clinical tasks, and 27 named subtasks, including visual question answering, image editing, and contextual multimodal generation.
