Welcome!
My name is Xinyi Yu (pronunciation). I am a second-year PhD student in Computer Science at University of Southern California (USC), working with Prof. Lars Lindemann. I received the M.S. degree in Control Science and Engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong Univeristy (SJTU), working with Prof. Shaoyuan Li and Prof. Xiang Yin in 2023, and the B.S. degree in Department of Automation from China University of Petroleum, East China (UPC) in 2020.

  • My general research interests include systems and control theory, formal methods, robotics, optimization, machine learning, and their applications in cyber-physical systems (CPSs). If you have any questions or comments about our works, please do not hesitate to drop me an email. I am open to discussions of any kind.
  • Stay safe and healthy - just like we hope our designed CPSs will be! Wishing you happiness every day!
