Yiming is currently a Postdoctoral Researcher at University of California, Berkeley, working with Prof. Aditya Parameswaran. He earned Ph.D. degree from University of California, Irvine, under the supervision of Prof. Sharad Mehrotra. Before that, he earned bachelor degree of computer science in Harbin Institute of Technology. Yiming is broadly interested in building data management systems at the intersection of structured and unstructured data with Large Language Models (LLMs). His recent research explores developing LLM-powered data systems for documents, with a focus on extracting latent structures from unstructured documents, establishing provenance-based trust in LLM-generated answers, and designing agentic query engines to process natural language questions effectively.
He loves landscape photography and traveling, and keeps sharing the most recent photographs in his 500px!
