I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at Columbia University where I work on Computer Vision, Machine Learning and Robotics. I am a member of Creative Machines Lab, advised by Professor Hod Lipson. I also work closely with Professor Carl Vondrick. In 2016 to 2017, I completed my M.S. degree in CS here at Columbia where I was also a member of Columbia Robotics Lab advised by Professor Peter Allen.

Before joining Columbia, I completed my undergraduate thesis on Control System Design at Control System Group at the University of Manchester where I was a winner of Chinese Government Scholarship. I received my Bachelor degree at Jilin University in 2016.

Research

My research is at the intersection of Machine Learning, Robotics and Vision, which enable machines to learn and act in a complicated and new environment. Currently, I am working on projects related to Predictive Vision and Robot Learning.
