Biography:
I'm a Professor in the School of Computer Science and Engineering of South China University of Technology which located in GuangZhou, GuangDong Province, China. My main research interests are intelligent robots, artificial intelligence and natural human-robot interaction. I have carried out the original research with considerable influence in the field of human-robot natural interaction of intelligent robot system. Based on the research of multimodal intelligent perception, I first proposed an unconstrained robot interaction method, and successfully applied it to military and civil robot systems, and introduced electromagnetic induction technology into the robot human feedback interaction system for the first time. My innovative achievements have been published in international journals, which have attracted the attention of peers at home and abroad. From 2013 to 2015, I worked at the School of Machanical and Automotive of South China University of Technology. Since then, I have been working in the School of Computer Science and Engineering of South China University of Technology.
