Chi Zhang with students

Hi, I'm Chi Zhang. I am a senior undergraduate student in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the ZJU-UIUC Institute, with an academic-year exchange at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. I currently work on UAV-view human action recognition with Prof. Bruce Yu, and my earlier research includes machine-learning-based high-speed channel modeling with Prof. Hanzhi Ma and YOLO-based tunnel-safety perception with Prof. Jixing Cao. I enjoy turning ideas in perception, robotics, and engineering design into practical tools for learning and experimentation.
