Hi, I am currently a PhD student in civil engineering at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), starting from Spring 2025. I am working under the supervision of Prof. Yantao Yu in the field of construction robots, as a member of the Human-Centered Intelligent Construction Lab (HCIC Lab).

I received my master degrees from University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC) in 2023, supervised by Prof. Zijun Wang. During my master study, I also worked as a intern student at Tsinghua University (THU), supervised by Prof. Xinyu Zhang. Previously, I received my bachelor degree from Lanzhou University of Technology (LUT).

My research interests includes perception, navigation, localization, reconstruction, and SLAM on construction robots. Actually, I am interested in broad sensor fusion and state estimation problems, with applications in navigation and perception of autonomous systems.
