Biography
Hi! I am Tianxing Chen (Chinese name: 陈天行), a first-year Ph.D. student at MMLab@HKU, The University of Hong Kong (since Oct. 2025), supervised by Prof. Ping Luo. My research focuses on Embodied AI, including robotic foundation models, generalizable manipulation policies (e.g., VLA, diffusion policy), and robot data synthesizers. I am now working as a research intern at ByteDance Seed Edge Team.
I have published multiple papers at top venues such as CVPR, RSS, and ACL. My works received Best Paper Award at the ECCV 2024 MAAS Workshop, Champion at NeurIPS 2025 MARS Challenge (Manipulation Track), third-runnerup at IROS 2025 AgiBot World Challenge (Manipulation Track), Best Poster Award at IROS 2025 RoMaDo, RoDGE, AIR4S Workshop and ChinaSI 2025, and a CVPR Highlight recognition. I organized Embodied-AI-Guide project, and received over 10k Github stars, which is the most popular EAI tutorial. Beyond research, I have been honored with the CCF Elite Collegiate Award (99 nationwide) and the “Excellent Star of SZU”, the highest undergraduate honor at Shenzhen University (ranked 2/30,000). I also won a silver medal in the ACM-ICPC regional competition and was national runner-up in the RAICOM robotics developer competition.
I am the founder of Lumina Embodied AI Community, and have served as an organizer of the SIGGRAPH ASIA 2025 TriFusion Workshop, CVPR 2025 MEIS Workshop, the CVPR 2025 RoboTwin Dual-Arm Collaboration Challenge, and the Greater Bay Area Embodied AI Workshop. I am also a student committee member of the Autonomous Robotic Technology Seminar (ARTS). In addition, I share my thoughts on research and technology as a blogger and vlogger, with over 18k followers on Rednote 🎒@TianxingChen (陈天行).
