پژوهشگر
Wenhao Ding is a Research Scientist at NVIDIA's Autonomous Vehicle Group, focusing on enhancing the safety and robustness of physical autonomous systems, particularly autonomous vehicles. His research integrates multi-modal large language models, reinforcement learning, and causal discovery to improve model reasoning capabilities. He holds a Ph.D. from Tsinghua University's Department of Electronic Engineering, with a thesis on 'Generative AI for Critical Digital Twins.' Key research interests include safety-critical scenario generation, causal representation learning, and offline reinforcement learning. His work emphasizes closed-loop simulation for autonomous systems and has led to contributions like the SafeBench benchmarking platform and the RealGen scenario generation framework. He has received the 2022 Qualcomm Innovation Fellowship. Notable collaborations include projects with Prof. Marco Pavone at Stanford and internships at Amazon Lab126 (Astro team) and Bosch Center for AI. He actively reviews for top conferences (ICML, NeurIPS, CVPR) and journals (IEEE T-ITS, RA-L). His recent focus on privacy risks in robotics and causal-aware driving models underscores his commitment to trustworthy AI systems. He organizes conferences like the 2024 IEEE International Automated Vehicle Validation Conference and co-hosted the Secure and Safe Autonomous Driving (SSAD) Workshop at CVPR 2023. His interdisciplinary work bridges theory and practice, addressing critical challenges in autonomous systems' safety and generalization.
