Brief Bio
I am a Research Scientist at NVIDIA Autonomous Vehicle Research Group and a Postdoctoral Scholar at UC Berkeley, advised by Prof. Jitendra Malik and Prof. Trevor Darrell.
I received my Ph.D. at Cornell University, advised by Prof. Serge Belongie and Prof. Kilian Q. Weinberger.
My research focuses on advancing embodied intelligence (agents) through multimodal data, developing generalizable algorithms, and creating interactive intelligent systems. Central to this work is reasoning, large language models, generative models, and robotics. A key aspect involves aligning representations from diverse multimodal data, including 2D pixels, 3D geometry, language, and audio.
