Hi there 👋

• 🎓 About me: I am a PhD student at the College of Mechanical & Energy Engineering, Beijing University of Technology. I am extremely fortunate to be advised by Prof. Jianfeng Li. Before that, I studied as an undergraduate at the School of Mechanical and Materials Engineering, North China University of Technology.

• 🔬 Research: I am broadly interested in Medical Robotics, Control Theory, and Machine Learning.

• 🔎 Focus on: These days, I am mostly drawn by the development of Diffusion Models. A topic that I am actively thinking about/working on is How to build effective physical human-robot interaction strategies through multimodal information.

• 📫 How to reach me: zy19970 AT emails.bjut.edu.cn

• 💼 I'm actively looking for a full-time position! Let's connect if you happen to know any good fittings.
