My name is Jiayi Zhang (张珈译), a Mathematics and Applied Mathmatics Undergrad student at University of Nottingham Ningbo China (UNNC).
I am open to any relavant research collaboration and internship. 🥳 Feel free to contact me via Email or WeChat.
As WeChat is also part of my daily life, I kindly ask that it be used mainly for research-related communication.
📄 You can download my CV here.
🔎 Research
I focus on developing efficient and intelligent systems that integrate learning and control for perception, reasoning, and real-world interaction. My current research interests focus on three key areas:
a) Robotics Manipulation: Perception-aware policy learning and generalizable control for physical interaction
b) Control-oriented Reinforcement Learning: Offline or online methods for continuous control and real-world decision making
c) Large Model Inference Acceleration: Efficient architectures and optimization strategies for fast reasoning with foundation models
I support Slow Science.
