[ Curriculum Vitae ]

Hi there, I'm Yixuan Huang!

I'm a fourth-year Ph.D. student in the Kahlert School of Computing at the University of Utah. I am fortunate to be advised by Prof. Tucker Hermans. I am currently working on perception, reasoning, and planning for multi-object manipulation tasks. Before coming to Utah, I worked on sample-efficient reinforcement learning and safe autonomous driving at UC San Diego for two years advised by Prof. Sicun Gao. I got my bachelor degree in Computer Science and Engineering from Northeastern University (China) in 2020.
