Yuhong Deng

Ph.D. Student, School of Computing, National University of Singapore

I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at the National University of Singapore, advised by Prof. David Hsu. My research spans robot perception, learning, and planning, with the goal of building robots that generalize across diverse household manipulation tasks. Previously, I received my M.Eng. and B.Eng. from Tsinghua University in 2023 and 2020.
