Shucheng Kang
I am a second-year Ph.D. student at Computational Robotics Lab of Harvard SEAS, advised by Prof. Heng Yang. Before that, I received my Bacholar degree in Department of Electronic Engineering, Tsinghua University at 2023, where I had the fortune to work with Prof. Jianyu Chen. In the summer of 2022, I had a remote internship in CMU’s Intelligent Control Lab, under the guidance of Prof. Changliu Liu.
My long-term goal is to provide both theoretical foundations and computational tools for the next generation of robotic systems. Currently, I am focused on solving large-scale SDP problems arising from the Moment-SOS Hierarchy, which are commonly encountered in robotics applications such as trajectory optimization and geometric perception.
