-
🧩 iVISPAR – Designed and developed an interactive multi-modal benchmark to assess visual-spatial reasoning of large vision-language models with Unity.
-
🐜 MicrocosmAI – Founded and led MicrocosmAI, a research initiative focused on emergent communication and coordination in embodied multi-agent environments with MuJoCo.
-
🔬 Cortical Spike Synchrony – Implemented a computational framework to model cortical spike synchrony, demonstrating that spike synchrony reflects the Gestalt structure of the stimulus which can be interpreted as a mechanism for prior probability estimation.
