Biography

I am a fourth-year PhD student at Department of Computing & Information Sciences, Rochester Institute of Technology, USA advised by Dr. Yunbo Zhang. Before that I received M.S in the Department of Computer Science, Rochester Institute of Technology, USA, in August. 2021 (Advisor: Dr. Yu Kong) and B.S degree from School of Science, Qingdao University of Technology, China, in Jul. 2019.

My research interests encompass human-robot collaboration, open-set recognition, robot learning, AR-based teleoperation systems, tactile sensing, and their applications in computer vision tasks. I believe that multi-dimensional interaction with intelligent robots is the future.
