Hello! I am Quanting Xie . I am a first year PhD student at CLAW Lab at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU). I am fortunate to be advised by Prof. Yonatan Bisk. Additionally, I have had the opportunity to closely work with Prof. Matthew Johnson-Roberson and Prof. Chris Atkeson. My reserach focus is on LLM Agent for Robotics and developing challenging tasks and realistic robotic hardware (dexterous robotics hand first!) that necessitate advancements in Embodied Intelligence. I am also interested in grounding Foundation Models through continuous interaction with the environment.

I am actively seeking various research opportunities and collaborations.

Manufacturing Engineer, Apple
Designed an Automation Layout Optimization software (ALO) for glue curing stations, which resulted in a 36% reduction in total curing equipment. The techniques used included linear programming for task scheduling and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) for determining the best machine layout.
