About Me
I am an first-year Ph.D. student in Robotics at the University of Michigan advised by Prof. Yanran Ding (ARCaD Lab). Prior to that, I earned M.S. in Robotics from Johns Hopkins University, and my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Zhejiang University and University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
Research Interests
My research interests are in legged robot, dynamics, estimation, optimization- and learning-based control. I am particularly interested in using tools such as convexification and learning to reason about their physics and generate robust behavior.
