About me

I am currently a second-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at the State Key Laboratory of Internet of Things for Smart City, University of Macau. I am fortunate to be supervised by Prof. Jianbing Shen and Prof. Cheng-zhong Xu. My current research interests primarily focus on World Models (Simulation and Post-training), Physical AI and Autonomous Driving.

Previously, I received my Master’s degree from the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (UCAS) and the Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CASIA), under the supervision of Prof. Jinqiao Wang and Prof. Ming Tang. I obtained my Bachelor from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (BUPT) in 2020.

I am always open for research discussions and collaborations.

Recently, I have also been looking for research intern opportunities related to the physical-aware world model and diffusion policy closed-loop training.
