Hi! I’m
Hongming Wang.

I study large language models, agents, and intelligent interaction — and keep notes on the ideas, places, and people that shape the journey.

About me

Building intelligent systems for discovery and real-world interaction.

I am currently completing my master’s degree atSUSTech, advised byProf. Min Yang andProf. Yinghuan Shi. I will joinNanjing University as a Ph.D. student in Fall 2026.

My work focuses on LLM reasoning, agents, deep research, GUI intelligent interaction, and AI for Science. Outside research, I enjoy tennis, music, photography, and getting lost in a new city.

Selected work

Research with a path toward useful, trustworthy AI.
