Experience
Machine Learning Engineer Intern
- ICCV Challenge: As the main member of the team, participated in the ICCV'23 challenge: Open Fine Grained Activity Detection Challenge (OpenFAD). Currently, the team ranks at third place on the activity recognition track and second place on the activity detection track.
- Foundation Model: Explored video foundation models like VideoMAE and UniFormer.
- Model Inference Optimization: Made use of TensorRT to speed up a detection model based on YOLO.
Research Assistant
- Research: Researched estimation and control in the robotics field.
- Controller Design: Designed and implemented a robust LQR controller which can be used in real-world applications.
- Experiments: Conducted experiments about the LQR controller on an unmanned ground vehicle.
Research Assistant
- Research about Visual Odometry: Researched visual odometry and simultaneous localization and mapping in the robotics field. Especially focusing on the integration of visual odometry and multi-object tracking.
- Implementation of a Visual Odometry: Implemented a system with integration of deep learning-based visual odometry and multi-object tracking. Deep optical flow estimation and a 3D object detection network were used.
