Xingxing Zuo
Postdoc Researcher at Technical University of Munich.

I’m a Postdoc Researcher at the School of Computation, Information and Technology, Technical University of Munich, Germany, working with Prof. Stefan Leutenegger. Prior to this, 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 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.

research interests
My research interests include robotic perception, 3D computer vision, probabilistic multi-sensor fusion, visual-inertial navigation, state estimation, and dense mapping. I’m conducting research on integrating the intelligence of the deep neural networks and the traditional probabilistic methods for robotic perception tasks.
