About
Hi! I'm Shuo, currently a master's student in the Electrical and Computer Engineering department at the University of Washington (UW). I am also a student researcher working with the Perceptual Reasoning and Interaction Research (PRIOR) team at the Allen Institute for AI (AI2).
At AI2, I am fortunate to be co-advised by Prof. Ranjay Krishna and Dr. Jiafei Duan, and pleased to be mentored by Prof. Dieter Fox. Before this, I received my bachelor's degree in Robot Engineering from Southeast University, where I was fortunately advised by Prof. Chenxing Wang.
My research interests primarily focus on robot learning. Specifically, I investigate how to develop general robot manipulation policies and how to adapt them to specific scenarios during actual deployment.
I am actively seeking Research Engineer / Assistant positions in Robotics. Feel free to reach out!
