About me
I am a Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor) in Machine Learning at the Department of Computer Science and a member of Centre for AI Fundamentals and Centre for Robotics and AI, The University of Manchester, UK. Before that, I was an Assistant Professor in Robot Dynamics at the Department of Cognitive Robotics and co-director of Delft SELF AI Lab, TU Delft, Netherlands and a Project Leader at DJI, China. I am an Area Chair or Associate Editor of IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, ACM Transactions on Probabilistic Machine Learning, Conference on Robot Learning (CoRL), IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS). I received my degrees from Imperial College London, University of Science and Technology of China and Harbin Institute of Technology.
I have a broad interest in robot control using Bayesian machine learning and the principles of dynamic control. Recently, I have been interested in human-AI/robots teaming.
