Dr. Chuang Yu （于 闯）
-----on the way UCL as Research Fellow-----
Postdoc Researcher on Trustworthy/Cognitive Robotics and AI at Prof. Angelo Cangelosi's Lab-Cognitive Robotics Lab (COROLAB) of University of Manchester on project UKRI TAS Node in Trust (funding).
As a Co-Investigator, I also work on UKRI TAS Intergrated Project - Verifiably Human-Centric Robot Assisted Dressing.
Before I come UoM, I received my Ph.D. degree at ASR Group (Autonomous Systems and Robotics) of U2IS, ENSTA-Paris, IP-Paris (Institut Polytechnique de Paris) supervised by Prof. Adriana Tapus. My past works in Paris are motsly about multimodal human behaviors understanding and robot behaviors synthesis with deep learning.
Focus: Human-centric Robotics with AI; Explainable Robotics with AI; Trustworthy Robotics with AI; Cognitive Robotics; Human-Robot Interaction.
