## Summary

Mikhail Nedosekin is an ML researcher and computer science educator in Moscow. He
studies Business Informatics with a minor in Neural Network Technologies at HSE
University (National Research University Higher School of Economics), 2023–2027, and
works as a teaching assistant in Classical Machine Learning at the HSE Faculty of
Computer Science. His work centres on large language models — LLM agents, LoRA and
parameter-efficient fine-tuning, post-training and mechanistic interpretability — and
on recommender systems, classical machine learning and time series analysis, mostly in
Python and PyTorch. Alongside research he runs an independent computer science
tutoring practice. He is the son of Rostislav Nedosekin.

## Projects

**AutoML_LLM_agent** — an LLM agent that orchestrates a full ML pipeline: the model
decides how to handle missing data, which features to engineer and which model and
hyperparameters to pick, while deterministic Python nodes run the work. Built on
LangGraph. https://github.com/mnedo/AutoML_LLM_agent

**LUFFY post-train** — coursework reproducing LUFFY (Learning to reason Under
oFF-policY guidance): a mixed-policy GRPO method blending a model's own rollouts with
off-policy reasoning traces from a stronger teacher via regularized importance
sampling. https://github.com/mnedo/Research_in_LLMs/tree/main/hw3_LUFFY_post_train

**BookBot** — a Telegram bot automating offline appointment booking on top of Google
Calendar, with an admin panel and a SQLAlchemy-backed store.
