Zhanxin Wu

I am a second-year master student majoring in Computer Science at National University of Singapore (NUS) advised by Prof David Hsu. I work at the intersection of robotics and machine learning, with the goal of enabling robots to work intellectually and seamlessly in the real world.

Previously, I worked as an Undergraduate Research Assistant with Prof Junhua Zhao in the Lab of Energy Internet. After that, I was a Robotics Institute Summer Scholar (RISS) at Carnegie Mellon University advised by Prof Jean Oh. Currently, I am working on open scene graphs for open-world object goal navigation at the NUS Adacomp. I received my B.E. in Computer Science and Engineering from the Chinese University of Hongkong, Shenzhen (CUHKSZ) in 2022.

Invariance is Key to Generalization: Examining the Role of Representation in Sim-to-Real Transfer for Visual Navigation
Bo Ai, Zhanxin Wu, David Hsu
International Symposium on Experimental Robotics (ISER), 2023
To appear in Springer Proceedings in Advanced Robotics (SPAR)
Paper

This work examines, experimentally and theoretically, one representation that enables visual navigation policies solely trained in the Habitat simulator to generalize to real-world scenes, both indoor and outdoors.

Integrating Common Sense and Planning with Large Language Models for Room Tidying
Zhanxin Wu, Bo Ai, David Hsu
Robotics: Science and Systems (RSS) Learning for Task and Motion Planning Workshop, 2023
Paper / Poster

A framework that enables an agent to put misplaced objects back in place with partial map information by exploiting commonsense knowledge in large language models (LLMs).
