Short Bio
I'm currently on the job market. Please reach out if you think I would be a good fit. Thank you!
My previous research focuses on Embodiment AI, which achieve robot manipulation given only language description and is generalizable to any tasks, any robots, any objects, and any scenarios. The final goal is to build something like the "dummy" or the "JARVIS" in the movie Iron Man. Before this, I have rich experience in 3D computer vision, autonomous driving, and few-shot learning.
