Xingxing Zuo
Postdoc Research Associate at Caltech.
I’m a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Department of Computing + Mathematical Sciences, Caltech since January, 2024. Prior to this, I worked at Google in USA as a full-time visiting faculty researcher (Scientist) in 2023. I was an Postdoc Researcher (2021 - 2023) at Technical University of Munich, Germany, working with Prof. Stefan Leutenegger. I was an academic guest (2019 - 2021) in the Computer Vision and Geometry Group (CVG), at ETH Zurich, Switzerland, working with Prof. Marc Pollefeys. I was also a visiting scholar (2018) in the Robot Perception and Navigation Group (RPNG) of Prof. Guoquan (Paul) Huang at University of Delaware, USA, and a visiting scholar (2017) in the UTS Robotics Institute, University of Technology Sydney, Australia, working with Prof. Teresa Vidal Calleja. I received my doctoral degree in 2021, from the Department of Control Science and Engineering at Zhejiang University, China, under the co-supervision of Prof. Guoquan (Paul) Huang and Prof. Yong liu, and graduated with honors. Previously, I graduated with honors and obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering at University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC), Chengdu, China, in 2016.
I’m on the faculty job market now. If you know of any good open positions, I would appreciate it if you could reach out to me via email!
research interests
My research interests include robotics perception, 3D computer vision, multi-sensor fusion, state estimation, and foundation models.
I’m conducting research on integrating the intelligence of the deep neural networks and the traditional probabilistic methods for real-time robotic perception tasks.
