Robotics Researcher

Shenyang Institute of Automation

State Key Laboratory of Robotics and Intelligent Systems

I am a Assistant Researcher in Shenyang Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, SIA. Currently, I am a joint postdoctoral researcher at Idiap Research Institute, working with the Robot Learning & Interaction (RLI) group and the Human-Robot AI (HRAI) group. I am a Ph.D. of mechanical engineering supervised by Jie Zhao at the state key laboratory of robotics and systems in Harbin Institute of Technology from 2017 to 2024. My research interests include robot skill learning, learning from demonstration and imitation learning. I am also interested in optimal control and bimanual manipulation.
