Muyang Yan

I’m an incoming senior in CS at Purdue researching Neuro-symbolic AI for robotics. I’m advised by Prof. Yexiang Xue and Prof. Zak Kingston at Purdue CS, and Prof. Katia Sycara at CMU’s Robotics Institute.

I want to build systems that can continually acquire and reason about both explicit and implicit knowledge to learn about and act in the real world.

Outside of research, I love rock climbing, table-tennis, and music production.
