Lujie Yang
I am a final-year PhD student at MIT EECS advised by Prof. Russ Tedrake. I obtained my bachelor's degree from UC Berkeley, under the mentorship of Prof. Francesco Borrelli.
I am interested in the planning and control of robotic systems through the integration of machine learning, optimization, and control theory. I develop algorithms that combine data-driven and model-based optimization techniques to enable highly performant and robust robots, particularly in the context of dexterous, contact-rich manipulation.
I love playing badminton, visiting museums and writing classical Chinese poetry. Here is a selected collection of my poems.
I am seeking a research-oriented position in industry. If you think my expertise aligns with your needs, please feel free to reach out.
