Yixin Zhu

Assistant Professor

PKU Institute for AI

Biography

Dr. Yixin Zhu received a Ph.D. degree (‘18) from UCLA advised by Prof. Song-Chun Zhu. His research builds interactive AI by integrating high-level common sense (functionality, affordance, physics, causality, intent) with raw sensory inputs (pixels and haptic signals) to enable richer representation and cognitive reasoning on objects, scenes, shapes, numbers, and agents. Dr. Zhu directs the PKU CoRe Lab, working on abstract reasoning, visually grounded reasoning, and interactive reasoning.
