I am a PhD candidate in Electrical and Computer Engineering at University of California, San Diego under the supervision of Prof. Florian Meyer. I have also been closely working with Prof. Bhaskar D. Rao. Prior to joining UCSD, I obtained my B.Eng. degree in Electronic Engineering at the Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2018, and M.Sc. degree in ECE at UCSD in 2021. I was the receipt of Qualcomm Innovation Fellowship in 2022.

My research focuses on machine learning and statistical signal processing. I am currently working on probabilistic modeling and machine learning algorithms on machine perception and sensing problems such as multi-object tracking and SLAM.
