Hi, I'm Zhenyu Wu (CV).
I am a Senior Machine Learning Engineer II (Perception) at Cruise LLC, reporting to Dr. Annie Liu.
I was a researcher at Wormpex AI Research, where I was extremely fortunate to work with Dr. Zhou Ren, Dr. Gang Hua, and Dr. Yi Wu.
I obtained my Ph.D. from VITA Lab, advised by Prof. Atlas Wang.
