I am a PhD student at The University of Hong Kong, affiliated with the ArcLab under the supervision of Professor Peng Lu. My research lies at the intersection of reinforcement learning and legged robotics, with a focus on enabling humanoid robots to learn from real-world interactions and acquire human-like capabilities.
I earned my Bachelor’s degree from Northwestern Polytechnical University in 2023, where I conducted research in audio speech recognition (ASR) under the guidance of Professor Lei Xie at the ASLP Lab. My work focused on enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of speech recognition systems.
I am passionate about advancing robotics to bridge the gap between technology and human society, aiming to automate repetitive tasks and unlock new possibilities for human potential.
