Yunhao Luo

I am a visiting student researcher at Georgia Tech advised by Prof. Danfei Xu. I also work closely with Prof. Yilun Du. I received my M.S. from Brown CS in 2024, where I worked with Prof. Chen Sun. Before that, I worked with Prof. Lin Wang at HKUST(GZ) and Prof. Jianguo Zhang at SUSTech on computer vision. I received my B.E. in CS from SUSTech in 2022.

My research goal is to develop intelligent agents that can freely interact with the physical world and bring a positive impact on people's lives. To this end, my interests lie at the intersection of machine learning, robotics, and computer vision. I seek to build intelligence agents in a more efficient and scientific way by drawing inspiration from human cognitive biases and make them more reliable, lightweight, cost-effective, and accessible to users. Currently, I am working on generative AI for decision-making in robotics.

Outside academia, I spend my time playing sports and music, and hanging out with friends.
