About me

I am a Research Assistant at Queen Mary University of London working on VLM based referring expression segmenation. My research interests include human-robot interaction and computer vision for robotics. Previously, I was a PhD student at Queen Mary University of London working with Dr. Changjae Oh and Prof. Andrea Cavallaro on hand-object reconstruction from images and human-to-robot handover. I received an MSc in Artificial Intelligence from Queen Mary University of London and a BSc in Physics from Imperial College London.
