I am a final-year Ph.D. student at HKUST and also a member affiliated with GEAR at NVIDIA Research, working with Joel Jang and Jim Fan. I am currently scaling foundation models for robots. Previously, I was fortunate to work at OpenDriveLab.
I was born in the last year of the 20th century (May 17th, 2000). I hope to live until the 22nd century so that my life would span three centuries. The Chinese meanings of each word in my name (高深远) are "High", "Deep", "Far", respectively.
- Video World Models for General-Purpose Robots
