Resume

Received the B.E. degree in safety engineering and the M.E. degree in precision instruments and mechanology from the North China Institute of Technology, Taiyuan, and the Ph.D. degree in control theory and control engineering from the Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China, in 1998, 2001, and 2003, respectively. He is currently an Associate Professor of the Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing. After graduation, he served as a Postdoctoral Researcher with the Center for Systems and Control of Peking University, Beijing. He was a Research Fellow during 2008 with the City University of Hong Kong, Kowloon.

R&D Scopes

Currently focused on biomimetic robotics (bio-inspired swimming and amphibious robots), modeling and control, collective intelligence (multi-robot system), mechatronic design, advanced robot control (fuzzy system, artificial neural network, and central pattern generator based locomotion control), embedded vision, etc.

Professional Experience

He has been an Associate Professor of Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences since March 2006, as a branch of bio-inspired robotics in Prof. Min Tan’s robotics group.
