Huaiyuan Xu

Postdoctoral Fellow @ Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

I am a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE), The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU). My research centers on Computer Vision and Artificial Intelligence, towards a better end-to-end automated system for edge intelligent agents. My work focuses on three key areas:

  1. Vision-Centric Autonomous Driving – Advancing understanding, interaction, and navigation in the 3D world through vision-based observation.

  2. Robustness Across Modalities – Ensuring robust performance of AI models across various sensors used by different agents.

  3. Efficiency For On-Board Deployment – Pushing the efficiency frontier of space intelligence systems to enhance cost-effectiveness.

Before coming to PolyU, I received my PhD degree from the School of Precision Instrument and Optoelectronics Engineering at Tianjin University (TJU), advised by Prof. CHEN Xiaodong. I completed both B.Eng and M.Eng study at Tianjin University. Currently, I work closely with Prof. CHAU Lap-Pui and Dr. WANG Yi.

I am open to collaborations (anytime & anywhere & any type). If you are interested in working with me, feel free to reach out via email at huaiyuan.xu@polyu.edu.hk. I will provide GPU support if we are a good fit.
