I am currently a Ph.D. student (Integrated Master’s-PhD Program) of the Institute of Intelligent Vehicles at Tongji University under the supervision of Professor Bingzhao Gao with College of Automotive and Energy Engineering (former: School of Automotive Studies).
I obtained my Bachelor of Engineering degree in Vehicle Engineering (Automobile) from School of Automotive Studies, Tongji University in June 2023, also advised by Professor Bingzhao Gao.
My primary research centers on autonomous driving, particularly in decision-making, trajectory-planning and Vision-Language Models. I am proficient in using English and German for communication and academic research, with the following language proficiency credentials: CET-6 (College English Test Band 6) with a score of 670, IELTS (International English Language Testing System) with a score of 7.5, and TestDaF (Test Deutsch als Fremdsprache) with a score of 18.
Please contact me if you are interested in my research and I am open to any academic collaboration!
