I'm a second-year PhD student at the University of Michigan,
advised by Prof. Andrew Owens.
I received my B.Eng. and B.Ec. from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in
2023, with an honors degree from Zhiyuan College.
During my undergraduate, I was fortunate to work with
Prof. Ruohan Gao
and Prof. Jiajun Wu at Stanford.
Prior to that, I worked closely with Prof. Yong-Lu Li
and Prof. Cewu Lu at SJTU.
My research interests mainly lie in multimodal perception,
reasoning
and robot learning.

Research Interests
Humans perceive the world with multiple senses,
based on which we establish abstract concepts to understand it.
From the concepts we develop logical reasoning ability,
and thus creating brilliant achievements.
Inspired by this,
my dream is to design human-like multisensory intelligent systems,
which can be divided into four specific problems:
Multimodal Perception:
how to perceive and model
the multimodal physical world.
Concept Learning:
how to abstract the perceived information into high-level concepts.
Reasoning:
how to perform causal reasoning on the basis of concepts.
Robot Learning:
how to enable robots to actively interact with the real-world environments and humans.

As a person who works on building multisensory embodied systems,
I also enjoy being a multisensory embodied agent outside of work:
👁 Photography:
I'm always grateful to have grown up in a family that loves photography
(my parents own a collection of various cameras released from 1999 to 2020,
and they are all functioning!).
I've been learning to take photos since I was 7 years old,
and have been fortunate to capture some impressive moments along the way.
See some of them here!
👂 Classical music:
I love listening to classical music, especially those from
the Viennese Classic period to the Romantic period.

💪 Tennis:
Despite having been playing for 2+ years,
I still regard myself as a beginner -- probably around NTRP level 3.0? --
but I really enjoy it and look forward to getting better!
🦵 Running:
I usually go running in the afternoon after work
and it helps me regain my mental clarity.
My short-term goal is to complete a half marathon!
