About Me

Lirui Zhao 赵力锐

I am currently a first-year Ph.D. student at the MMLab@HKU, The University of Hong Kong, supervised by Prof. Ping Luo. Previously, I received my master's degree from MAC@XMU, Xiamen University, where I was advised by Prof. Rongrong Ji.

My recent research focuses on Robotics, especially Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models and world models.

I'm open to research collaborations and always excited to connect. Feel free to drop me an email if you're interested!
