I am a Research Fellow in distributed multi-drone coordination at the University of Leeds, UK.

My research develops trustworthy multi-agent learning for embodied autonomous systems. I combine reinforcement learning, distributed optimization, and hands-on drone experimentation to understand when autonomous robots should act, coordinate, or defer decisions under uncertainty.

I work across simulation and real-world drone testbeds, with applications in distributed sensing, last-mile delivery, and resilient urban infrastructure. My long-term goal is to establish an independent research group in defer-capable robotic autonomy.

I received my PhD in Computer Science from the University of Leeds in 2025. Before that, I completed my MSc in Signal and Information Processing and BSc in Electronic Information Engineering at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China.
