Siang Chen

Ph.D. Candidate at Department of Electronic Engineering, Tsinghua University.

Biography

I am a forth-year PhD student at Visual Computing Laboratory, Department of Electronic Engineering, Tsinghua University, supervised by Prof. Guijin Wang. Previously I received my bachelor’s degree at Department of Electronic Engineering, Tsinghua University in July, 2021.

I am now a visiting scholar in Prof. Lin Shao’s Lab at National University of Singapore.

My research focus is on robot manipulation, embodied AI and applications of 3D scene understanding. Currently, I’m working on building a more unified representation for manipulation with a more efficient general algorithm, especially for more difficult scenes.
