Yu Luo is currently a 2nd-year Ph.D. student at Nankai University, working under the supervision of Prof. Yongqian Sun and Prof. Shenglin Zhang. He received his Bachelor’s degree in Software Engineering from Nankai University in 2025. His research interests include AIOps, multi-agent systems, and reinforcement learning, with a specific focus on building collaborative multi-agent systems that leverage LLM reasoning, memory, RAG, and RL to solve complex downstream tasks. He has published 7 papers at conferences such as ICML, KDD, and ASE.


My recent research interests lie in: (i) Building self-evolving agents via parametric approaches; (💡 Agentic tool-use, self-evolution) (ii) Tackling belief state challenges in long-horizon and multi-turn agent interactions, with a particular focus on active reasoning tasks. (💡 Active Reasoning)

Graph of States: Solving Abductive Tasks with Large Language Models

Yu Luo, Rongchen Gao, Lu Teng, et al.

  • Graph of States is a general-purpose neuro-symbolic framework for abductive reasoning that grounds multi-agent collaboration in structured belief states, uses a causal graph and state machine to constrain reasoning transitions, and turns unconstrained exploration into a directed search that consistently improves performance on complex real-world abductive tasks.

OpsAgent: An Evolving Multi-agent System for Incident Management in Microservices

Yu Luo, Jiamin Jiang, Jingfei Feng, et al.

  • OpsAgent is a lightweight and self-evolving multi-agent framework for incident management that transforms heterogeneous observability data into structured textual evidence, coordinates specialized agents for transparent diagnosis, and continuously improves through both model refinement and accumulated operational experience.

KRCA: An Efficient Root Cause Analysis System in Hyper-Scale Microservice Systems via Agentic AI

Jiamin Jiang, Jingfei Feng, Yu Luo, Qingliang Zhang, et al.

  • KRCA is an end-to-end root cause analysis system for hyper-scale microservice systems that uses API-level drilldown to prune massive service dependencies, instantiates skeleton-based causal graphs from anomalous metrics, and coordinates memory-augmented agents to verify causality and generate failure reports. Evaluated on 300 real-world failures and deployed at Kuaishou, it improves root-cause localization and failure-type classification while reducing average diagnosis time by 77.3%.

Predicting the Impact of Parameter Adjustments on Cellular Networks

Yongqian Sun, Qingliang Zhang, Yu Luo, Mingjie Li*, et al.

  • PIPCell is a two-phase predictive framework for estimating how transmission power and cell individual offset adjustments affect cellular network metrics, combining domain-knowledge calibration with graph-organized Transformers to model intervention effects and inter-metric dependencies. On real-world China Mobile data, it improves over strong baselines by up to 25.8% in RMSE and 59.0% in sMAPE.
