Huazhe Xu

SQZ PI(September 2022 to present)
THU Assistant Professor

Biography

Shanghai Qi Zhi Institute PI, Assistant Professor at IIIS, Tsinghua.

XU Huazhe is currently a tenure-track Assistant Professor at the Institute for Interdisciplinary Information Sciences, Tsinghua University. He completed his postdoctoral work at Stanford University and earned his Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley. In 2021, he served as a part-time visiting scientist in the Meta Artificial Intelligence research department. His research focuses on the theory, algorithms, and applications of embodied artificial intelligence (Embodied AI), including deep reinforcement learning, robotics, and sensorimotor control. He systematically studies visual deep reinforcement learning, imitation learning, and robot manipulation, with the aim of addressing core issues such as low data efficiency and weak generalization ability in embodied artificial intelligence. He has published over 30 top-tier conference papers, and his representative works have been covered by media outlets such as MIT Tech Review and Stanford HAI.
