Iβm a visiting research student at EPFL, advised by Prof. Josie Hughes. I am also a second-year M.S. student at Aalto University, majoring in Robotics. Previously, I received my B.Eng degree in Automation from Tongji University in June 2024, where I was fortunately supervised by Prof. Rui Fan.
My research interests include computer vision, robot perception, robot manipulation, and biomedical signal processing. Currently, my work focuses on robot tactile sensing and RL-based manipulation.
