Hi! I am an undergraduate student in Department of Automation, Tsinghua University. Currently, I am a research intern at LeCAR Lab at Carnegie Mellon University, advised by Prof. Guanya Shi.

I believe robots will be a part of every home in the near future, and achieving this will require enabling them to understand and reason about the physical world. I’m particularly interested in how robots can adapt to different tasks and demonstrate generalizability, and I am facinated by the ideas of embodied reasoning and inference time scaling.

I am applying for a PhD position in 2025 Fall. Please drop me an email if you are interested in my research or just want to chat!

Miscellaneous

Beyond my research interests, I am also passionate about history, philosophy, sociology, and psychology. I've been playing the piano for about ten years and am a big fan of Western classical music, with Beethoven and Mahler being my favorite. I also enjoy traveling and photography.

I believe that curiosity, resilience, and the pursuit of liberty are among the most precious qualities of humanity. I strongly favor the quotes by Max Weber: "Man would not have attained the possible unless time and again he had reached out for the impossible. But to do that a man must be a leader, and not only a leader but a hero as well, in a very sober sense of the word."
