About me

I'm currently a Lecturer with the College of Electrical and Power Engineering, Taiyuan University of Technology. I got my Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering at Zhejiang University, under the guidance of Prof. Ji Xiang. My research focuses on multi-agent system, robot systems, autonomous underwater vehicles, and surface vehicles.
