About

  • Hi, I'm Yuwei, a CS PhD student at National University of Singapore, where I'm fortunate to be advised by Prof Xavier Bresson. My research is motivated by deploying robots into open-ended, unstructured environments for general and timely assistance. In particular, I'm interested in scalable, adaptive, and reusable robot skill acquisition through low-resource imitation learning and reinforcement learning.

    Previously, I worked on applied research in learning for robot manipulation at Dyson robotics research, where I was fortunate to have worked with a team of passionate roboticists and Dr. Edward Johns. I have also worked on a series of interesting real-life deep learning solutions as an R&D engineer at Panasonic R&D Center Singapore. Before that, I obtained my bachelor's degree from Nanyang Technological University, with my thesis supervised by Prof Justin Dauwels.
