Can Xu

Hello! 👋 I'm Can Xu, a second-year master’s student in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at Carnegie Mellon University. Currently, I serve as a research assistant at the AirLab within the Robotics Institute at CMU. I am working under the guidance of Prof. Sebastian Scherer. I also collaborate closely with Prof. Jenny Geng. Previously I worked with Prof. Xiangxue Zhang at Beijing Forestry University.

My research primarily focuses on Learning-Based Inertial Odometry Algorithms, Deep Learning, and Robot Perception.
