I am currently a third-year PhD student in Heriot-Watt University advised by Ahmed H. Elsheikh. Before that, I obtained the Bachelor degree in Robotics Engineering from Guangzhou University in June 2023.

Research Interests

I am generally interested in Reinforcement Learning (RL) and their applications.

• World Models
• Model-based Planning
• Diffusion Policy
