Hi, I am Zhehao Dong, a master’s student at the College of Engineering, Peking University. I received my bachelor’s degree in Software Engineering & Mechanics from Sichuan University in 2024.

Previously, I was a research intern at GigaAI under the supervision of Dr. Zheng Zhu, serving as a core contributor to the embodied foundation models GigaBrain-0 and GigaWorld-0. My research focuses on generalization in robot manipulation, particularly on reducing reliance on costly human annotations through multi-view world modeling and representation learning. I also co-led the development of the first egocentric multi-view spatial reasoning benchmark for humanoid robots in collaboration with the Beijing Humanoid Robot Innovation Center.

My research interests lie in World Models, Vision-Language-Action Models, and AI Agents.
