Academic Achievements
- Publications & Preprints: Safe MPC Alignment with Human Directional Feedback (Preprint, submitted to IEEE Transactions on Robotics), Language-Model-Assisted Bi-Level Programming for Reward Learning from Internet Videos (arXiv preprint, 2024), Robust Reward Alignment via Hypothesis Space Batch Cutting (Accepted by ICML 2025), On-Palm Dexterity: Dynamic Reorientation of Objects via Emergent Flipping and Sliding (ICRA 2025 Workshop), TwinTrack: Bridging Vision and Contact Physics for Real-Time Tracking of Unknown Dynamic Objects (arXiv preprint, 2025).
Research Experience
- PhD student at IRIS Lab, focusing on developing algorithms that enable robots to learn efficiently from human data—such as preferences, corrections, and demonstrations, and designing model-based and model-free methods for dynamic, contact-rich manipulation with high-DOF robotic hands.
Education
- Received B.Eng degree in automation at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China in 2022; Joined IRIS Lab at Arizona State University for PhD study in 2024.1, working with Dr. Wanxin Jin.
Background
- Research interests: Robot Learning from Human and Dexterous Manipulation. Specializes in imitation learning and interactive learning paradigms to allow robots to generalize from limited supervision and align their behavior with human intent, facilitating natural and adaptive human-robot collaboration.
