Zhifeng Gu 谷知峰

I am a third-year PhD candidate at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, advised by Prof. Bing Wang. I am also a research intern at XPENG Robotics, focusing on recursive self-improvement in embodied intelligence.

Previously, I received my B.Eng. from Beihang University as an Outstanding Graduate, advised by Prof. Lu Sheng.

My research interests primarily lie in embodied agents, spatial intelligence, and world models.

I am open to discussion and collaboration. Feel free to reach out.
