Weiduo Yuan

I'm a 1st-year master student at University of Southern California in Los Angeles. Before that, I received my bachelor degree at ShanghaiTech University majoring in computer science and technology.

I will graduate from the USC in December 2026 and am currently seeking PhD positions for Spring/Fall 2027.

Research Interests

My research interests generally lie in the area of Computer Vision, Robotic Perception and Robot Learning. Currently, I'm interested in VLA models and seeking research opportunities in data work and model training to build a powerful, efficient VLA system. Previously, I explored how diverse feature representation strategies can enhance performance across different computer vision applications.
