Yiming Lin

Building data systems for LLM-powered analytics
Postdoc @ UC Berkeley | PhD UC Irvine

[Aditya Parameswaran @adityagp]

I'm thrilled that my postdoc Yiming will join NTU as a tenure-track faculty member - joining one of the very best institutions in Asia, and an excellent DB group (w/ @RockinSourav Melanie Herschel and others!).
Yiming took on what was then an entirely new (and high-risk) research agenda: his postdoc research helped us understand how to effectively work with PDF documents with varying degrees of structure - a hugely important direction with many applications. Yiming is easily one of the most positive people I've met - never letting any setbacks affect him - and this positivity extends to how he effectively mentors junior students. I'm excited to see him start what is sure to be a remarkable, stellar career!

Better late than never, thrilled to share that I'm joining Nanyang Technological University @NTUsg this fall as a tenure-track Nanyang Assistant Professor (NAP) in the CCDS department! Big move from California to Singapore.
The years from Irvine to @UCBerkeley have been wonderful. Huge thanks to my family, advisors (@adityagp and Sharad Mehrotra), friends, and colleagues who've been with me on this journey. I'll miss everything here.
My research focuses on building reliable & scalable AI-powered systems for complex data work. I'm looking for postdocs & RAs (Fall 2026) and PhD students (Spring 2027). Reach out or visit https://t.co/4W2tFRSdLZ and hope to connect!
