I am Yibo Peng, a Research Assistant at UC Berkeley in the Wagner Research Group, advised by Prof. David Wagner and working closely with PhD student Sizhe Chen. My recent research focuses on AI security in real-world applications. I also closely collaborate with Prof. Beidi Chen on Code Agent Security and Prof. Huaxiu Yao on multimodal large language models.
I earned my Master's degree in Artificial Intelligence Engineering from CMU, where I worked with Prof. Daniel Fried and PhD student Zora Zhiruo Wang on code generation, and with Prof. Graham Neubig on code agents.
Broadly, my research aims to address core challenges for AI agents: enhancing multimodal reasoning, optimizing collaboration, and ensuring security and reliability.
