Qiyuan Zhuang

I am a master’s student in Artificial Intelligence at Southeast University, advised by Prof. Xiu-Shen Wei. I am also pursuing an M.S. in Artificial Intelligence at Monash University through a joint master’s program. Previously, I received my B.S. in Mathematics and Applied Mathematics from Lanzhou University in 2024, advised by Prof. Peng Li. I had a wonderful time as a visiting student at UC Santa Barbara during the spring quarter of 2023.

I am currently a VLA research intern at the Beijing Innovation Center of Humanoid Robotics.

My research focuses on embodied intelligence, seeking elegant methods for generalizable robotic manipulation. My work spans vision-language-action models, world-action models, visuomotor policies, and affordance learning. I am particularly interested in representation learning for embodied AI.
