Research Interests
My research focuses on parallel trajectory optimization for robotics, which has demonstrated strong performance in large-scale and long-horizon problems. I design GPU-accelerated algorithms that harness modern computing architectures for maximum efficiency. Currently, I am actively exploring the integration of machine learning methods with traditional optimization techniques to further accelerate the trajectory optimization process and uncover new potential from this synergy.
