Daihong Zhou (周代宏) is currently serving as a lecturer at the School of Computer Science and Information Engineering in Shanghai Institute of Technology. Prior to that, he studied in the Software Engineering Lab, also known as the CodeWisdom Research Team, at the School of Computer Science Fudan University. In January 2024, he received his Ph.D. in Software Engineering from Fudan University, under the guidance of Professor Xin Peng (彭鑫) and Professor Yijian Wu (吴毅坚).
Dr. Zhou's research focuses on AI for Software Engineering (AI4SE), Robotics Software Engineering (RoSE), and Embodied AI (EAI), with a particular emphasis on areas such as OSS Vulnerability Analysis, Robotics Vulnerability Analysis, Software Repository Mining, and Embodied AI Robot, among others. He explores the application of these concepts in both traditional software systems and robotics software systems. Dr. Zhou investigates how advanced AI techniques, such as large language models (LLMs) and knowledge graphs (KGs), can enhance development efficiency, software quality, software security, and system reliability. In addition, he addresses challenges in robotic motion control and planning, leveraging LLMs and vision-language models (VLMs) to improve robotic automation. His goal is to integrate software engineering principles with AI technologies to drive the development of intelligent, reliable, and autonomous systems.

Collaboration Invitation: Dr. Zhou is open to collaborating with professors, researchers, and industry professionals who share similar research interests or have relevant projects.

I am also looking for self-motivated undergraduate/master students interested in SE, AI, and Robot. Please drop me an email if you are interested in working with me!
