Shuaixing Chen

I'm a research assistant at Shanghai Qi Zhi Institute, advised by Macheng Shen, focusing on video robot learning. I received my Bachelor degree from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, School of Electrical Engineering.

Previously, I was a research intern at EmPRISE Lab, Cornell University, advised by Tapomayukh Bhattacharjee, focusing on robot simulation, multi-agent robot collaboration powered by diffusion, LLM and MPC.
Before that, I was fortunate to be advised by Dequan Wang, focusing on LLM-powered multi-agent systems for robot collaboration and autonomous driving.
