Biography

  • I am currently a Research Fellow in the College of Computing and Data Science (CCDS) at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) with Prof. Yang Liu.
  • I obtained my Ph.D. degree in June 2024 from Software Engineering Institute at East China Normal University (ECNU), Shanghai, China, supervised by by Prof. Jing Liu and Dr. Yuan Zhou.
  • I received my master degree in 2020 from School of Information Science and Technology at Zhejiang Sci-Tech University (ZSTU), Hangzhou, China, and was supervised by Prof. Zuohua Ding.
  • I received my bacholar degreee in 2017 from Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications (NJUPT), Nanjing, China.
  • Research Interests

    My research interests include (1) cooperative motion control, (2) safe and robust decision-making, and (3) safety testing of autonomous intelligent unmanned systems, such as mobile robots, unmanned aerial vehicles, and autonomous vehicles.

    1. Cooperative Motion Control: Cooperative collision avoidance and cooperative motion planning of multi-robot systems in unstructured environments.
    2. Safe and Robust Decision-making: Anomaly detection and safety-robust decision-making for mobile robot systems in adversarial and uncertain environments.
    3. Safety Testing: Critical test scenario generation and simulation-based testing of autonomous driving systems.
    4. Causal Inference: Causality-guided debiasing and causal deep reinforcement learning.

    In addition, I am also interested in Causal Inference, such causality-guided debiasing (deconfounding) and causal deep reinforcement learning.
