I am a Postdoctoral Scholar at the Berkeley Artificial Intelligence Research (BAIR) Lab working with Prof. Pieter Abbeel. I received my Ph.D. in Robotics from Carnegie Mellon University, advised by Prof. David Held and my B.S. in computer science from Peking University.
My research interest lies in robotics, machine learning, and computer vision. In particular, I develop algorithms for reinforcement learning and data-driven dynamics modeling and apply these algorithms to robotic manipulation, such as manipulating various deformable objects. My long-term goal is to build autonomous robots that can perceive, interact and explore the physical world.
