About Me

👋 Welcome to my personal homepage! I am Mingxin Wang, currently a Master’s student in the AI & Robot Lab at Tsinghua University, advised by Prof. Houde Liu. Prior to this, I received my Bachelor’s degree in Robotics Engineering from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics (NUAA).

🔬 My research interests primarily focus on Robot learning and World Model. I am dedicated to enabling robots with more versatile and delicate perception and manipulation capabilities in the complex physical world.

🤖 Currently, I am a MLLM Algorithm Intern at the CV Lab of Amap, Alibaba Group. Feel free to contact me!
