Atsuyuki Miyai

I'm a 2nd-year PhD student at the Yamasaki Lab, The University of Tokyo 🇯🇵.

My research areas are:

  • AI Agent for Broader Real-World Tasks (2025-): developing AI agents and its benchmark for broader real-world tasks such as web browsing (WebChoreArena).
  • Japanese LMMs Research (2024-): conducting research on Japanese LMMs, including the creation of a popular Japanese benchmark (JMMMU) and research on LMMs related to pop culture such as manga (MangaLMM).
  • Safety for Foundation Models (2022-2024): I have contributed to the development of OOD detection in the VLM era through representative works and survey paper, advancing the community. Furthermore, for LMMs, we introduce UPD, a robust understanding evaluation strategy.

I am interested in creating a platform for the research community to advance open-source activities. This effort includes providing new task designs, baseline methods, dataset creation, and survey papers.
