Xingrui Yu
About me
Dr. Xingrui Yu is currently a research scientist in Centre for Frontier AI Research (CFAR), Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR), Singapore.
Before that, he was a Ph.D. student at Australian Artificial Intelligence Institute in University of Technology Sydney(UTS),
supervised by Prof. Ivor W. Tsang and closely collaborated with Dr. Bo Han.
His research mainly focus on:
- Trustworthy AI (Robustness, Safety, Security, and Privacy),
- Reinforcement Learning (RL),
- Imitation Learning (IL) and Inverse Reinforcement Learning (IRL),
- Quality Diversity Imitation Learning (QDIL),
- Embodied AI, including Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models, and
- Agentic AI.
Opportunities
I am always looking for self-motivated student to work with me on cutting-edge research projects.
I accept CSC visiting students and research intern students supported by grants or scholarships (e.g., A*STAR SIPGA Scholarship
and A*STAR SINGA Scholarship).
I am also happy to discuss potential projects of common interests.
If you have interest for collaboration, please feel free to drop me an email.
