Wenya Xie

I’m Wenya Xie, a first-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at the University of Minnesota (UMN), advised by Prof. Zirui Liu. Previously, I worked as a research assistant at CUHK (Shenzhen) with Prof. Benyou Wang and Feng Jiang. I received my bachelor’s degree from Wuhan University.

My research centers on large language models, with a particular focus on agent memory, long-horizon interaction, and personalization.

Currently, I’m exploring:

• Long-horizon state management for LLM agents, including what to store, update, and retrieve across extended interactions.

• Learning from imperfect user feedback to adapt to personalized preferences across turns.

I’m always excited to connect. Questions, ideas, and early-stage thoughts are all welcome. If you have anything you’d like to discuss, feel free to reach out!
