Hi, I'm Lyuxing! Lyuxing's professional portrait

Lyuxing's casual portrait

I am a Master student at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) Robotics Institute and a member of Robots Perceiving and Doing (RPAD) Lab, advised by Prof. David Held.

My research lies at the intersection of Computer Vision and Robot Learning. I'm particularly interested in developing methods that enable robots to acquire generalizable manipulation skills from visual demonstrations through geometric reasoning.

Previously, I obtained my Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering with a minor in Computer Science from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with Highest Honors. During my undergraduate studies, I joined the Human-Centered Autonomy Lab as a research assistant, advised by Professor Katie Driggs-Campbell. I also joined The Chinese University of Hong Kong and the Ren Lab as a summer visiting scholar, advised by Professor Hongliang Ren.

You can contact me at lyuxingh at andrew dot cmu dot edu.

I am applying for Fall 2026 Ph.D. positions. Please drop me an email if you are interested in my research!
