About

“All models are wrong, but some are useful.”

— George E. P. Box, Robustness in the Strategy of Scientific Model Building

I am a master’s student in Robotics at the National University of Singapore (NUS), where I conduct research with Prof. Harold Soh in the CLeAR Lab and have worked closely with Jianxin Bi. Previously, I studied Intelligent Science and Technology at Nankai University.

I see robotics as a way to explore how intelligence takes shape in the physical world. I hope to learn from a wide range of ideas and approaches, searching for the unifying philosophy beneath them. I believe this philosophy may hold the key to genuine intelligence.
