👀 About Me
I’m a PhD student at JC STEM Lab of Future Advanced Computing Technologies (FACT-Lab) of The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST).
My research interests include Computer Architecture, Embodied AI and Robotics, especially for Embodied AI System Hardware-Software Co-Design. I believe that Embodied AI is a edge system engineering, which includes fancy algorithms, powerful hardware and real-time robust software.
I’m always learning on my way, trying to explore, re-search and improve myself. In my spare time, I like to climb mountains or go hiking, keeping my mind fresh and clear. A healthy mind and body are the foundation for efficient research.
I love my researching, my life and my bubble❤️.
