Ruihan (Multy) Xu 徐睿涵

I am a second year graduate student in Laboratory for Information & Decision Systems (LIDS) and Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AeroAstro) at MIT advised by Prof. Luca Carlone.

My research interests lie in spatial AI and perception for robots to better understand its surrounding and make informed decision. I’m especially interested in methods for building rich spatial representations for robot autonomy, such as scen graphs, and aiming to bring working robots into complex everyday environments.

Before joingng MIT, I was an undergratue student at the University of Michigan, pursuing degree of Computer Science focusing on Robotics. I feel fortuntate to work in CURLY lab directed by Prof. Maani Ghaffari. We aims to discover methods for computational reasoning and perception that will enable robots to effectively assist people in common human environments. Besides, I also work closely with Prof. Chad Jenkins in The Lab for Progress.

“君子和而不同” – “Scholars seek harmony in diversity”. Therefore, I’m excited to make friends with diversified interest and background, form collabration, and pursue great ideas. Feel free to contact me through email.
