Yibo Hu Research Group

My group works on trustworthy AI: robustness, uncertainty, and the safety of multi-agent LLM systems.

Several Spring 2026 manuscripts were completed with students who had recently joined the group.

For information about possible research opportunities, please see the Prospective Students page.
