Interactive multimodal intelligence

Tianyu Xie / 谢天宇

I study how AI systems can listen, see, reason, act, and revise continuously across time.

Omni models · Agentic systems
Long-video reasoning · Efficient inference

“The task we must set for ourselves is not to feel secure, but to be able to tolerate insecurity.”

我们需要为自己设定的任务,不是拥有安全感,而是能够接受不安全感。

Erich Fromm

Building systems that stay present.

I am an M.S. student admitted in Fall 2025 at the MAC Lab, Xiamen University, advised by Prof. Xiawu Zheng.

01

Omni-modal orchestration

Training-free coordination of modality experts through LLM routing, persistent memory, and full-duplex interaction.

02

Agentic systems and world models

Policies, memory, tools, and HCI-oriented evaluation for AI systems that must complete grounded tasks.

03

Long-video reasoning

Event-aware and semantic-boundary-aware frame selection for efficient long-form video understanding.

04

Efficient and adaptive inference

Speculative decoding, online drafting, and lightweight adaptation for deployable foundation models.

Work across interaction, perception, and inference.
