I am a doctoral student in computer science at Örebro University. My main research interests are deep reinforcement learning, sim-to-real and transfer learning. Currently I am working on robot skill learning and investigating how to apply reinforcement learning in continuous domains, such as robotic tasks. Previously, I also worked on trajectory planning, 3d perception and visual servoing.

B. Eng. in Communication Engineering, Shandong University.
M. Sc. in Information and Automation Engineering, University of Bremen.
