About Me

I am a Ph.D. student in the College of Computing and Data Science at Nanyang Technological University, advised by Prof. Yoonchang Sung. I am a member of the Algorithmic Robotics Group (ARG).

Before joining NTU, I received my master’s degree from the Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CASIA), where I was advised by Prof. Enhao Zheng. During my master’s studies, my research focused on human-robot collaboration. I developed realistic human-robot interaction scenarios in simulation and used them to optimize both the morphology and control of wearable robots.

My research interests lie in robot learning and multi-agent collaboration. In particular, I study how intelligent agents can collaborate efficiently, safely, and seamlessly with previously unseen teammates. My goal is to develop generalizable learning and decision-making methods that enable agents to understand unfamiliar partners, adapt their behaviors during interaction, and reliably accomplish shared tasks.
