I am a first-year CS Ph.D. student at the School of Data Science, Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen (CUHK-SZ), supervised by Prof Kui Jia. I received my Bachelor’s degree in University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC, 2014 - 2018), and Master’s degree in Nanyang Technological University (NTU, 2018-2019), Singapore. Before joining CUHK-SZ, I worked as a R&D engineer at DexForce Technology, where I lead the development of DexVerseTM, the world’s leading Sim2Real AI Platform for Embodied Intelligence.
My research interests are mainly in the following areas:
- Systems:
- High-performance Simulation Engine Architecture
- Data and Model Training Systems for Embodied Intelligence
- Simulation:
- Generative Model for Simulation
- Differentiable Rendering and Physics
- GPU-accelerated Simulation.
- Embodied Intelligence:
- Physics-Structured Model Architecture
- Online, Continual, and Lifelong Learning for Embodied Agents
- Sim2Real Transfer and Domain Adaptation
Projects
![]() | EmbodiChain: An end-to-end, GPU-accelerated, and modular platform for building generalized Embodied Intelligence Description: EmbodiChain is a unified, GPU-accelerated framework designed for pushing the boundaries of embodied AI research and development. It integrates high-performance simulation, data collection via real-to-sim techniques, data scaling pipeline, modular model architectures, and efficient training & evaluation tools. All of these components work seamlessly together to facilitate rapid experimentation and deployment of embodied intelligence and perform Sim2Real transfer into real-world robotic systems. |
