I am a postdoctoral fellow at School of Computing and Data Science, The University of Hong Kong, under the leadership of Prof. Jia Pan. Before that, I obtained my Ph.D. degree at Mechanical and Automation Engineering department, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, supervised by Prof. Ben M. Chen.

Research Interests

  • During Ph.D., I dedicated myself in developing intelligent robot planning and perception algorithms that enables real-world tasking.
  • After graduation, I shifted my interest in more challenging manipulation tasks that involves intricate physical constraints and human preference.
  • My current research interests lies in enhancing the performance of long-horizon manipulation tasks.
