PhD Student at UCLA Logo
Incoming Intern at NV Logo
AI and Autonomous Systems

πŸ‘‹ I am a PhD candidate at the UCLA Mobility Lab of the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), advised by Prof. Jiaqi Ma. I am also a research intern at Motional, and a incoming research intern at NVIDIA Research. I received my master’s degree from Tongji University with the honor of Shanghai Outstanding Graduate, advised by Prof. Yanjun Huang and Prof. Zhuoping Yu.

My research focuses on the scene understanding and reasoning of autonomous systems, which enables vehicles/robots to intelligently interact and cooperate with others. Currently, I am exploring the Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models and closed-loop simulation in this domain. My research is supported by Qualcomm Innovation Fellowship and Amazon AI PhD Fellowship.
