My research centers on compositional human motion and interaction. I explore how complex human behaviors can be represented, generated, and understood through the composition of body-part motions, actions, and interactions with objects. I want to build controllable models that can combine what they have learned to create new motions and interactions, even in situations they have never seen before.
