Honglin He

I am a first-year PhD student at the Department of Computer Science, University of California, Los Angeles, advised by Bolei Zhou.

I obtained my Master (2021.09 - 2024.06) at the Department of Automation, Tsinghua University, advised by Professor Yi Zhang and Shuo Feng. Before that, I received my B.Eng (2017.09 - 2021.06) at the Department of Automation, Xiamen University.

My research interest typically lies in Embodied AI and Simulation.
