I am an algorithm engineer at Huawei. I received my M.Sc. degree from ETH Zurich in 2020, under the supervision of Prof. Marc Pollefeys at Department of Computer Science. During the study, I also finished a robotics project in Autonomous System Lab under the supervision of Prof. Roland Siegwart. Before that, I received B.Eng. degree from UM-SJTU Joint Institute (JI), Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU). I was a research intern in Segway Robotics during winter 2019, working with Dr. Jianzhu Huai. I was an exchange student in Hong Kong University of Science and Techonology in Spring 2016, under the supervision of Prof. Shuhuai Yao.
