Hi, I’m Xijia Polina Zhang, a Robotics Ph.D. student at Georgia Institute of Technology, where I was fortunate to be co-advised by Prof. Zsolt Kira and Prof. Siddharth Karamcheti . My research focuses on data attribution and aggregation for robotic foundation models, including VLAs and beyond. Feel free to reach out about any collaboration that makes sense!

I publish under the name Zhang Xi-Jia, similar to the convention followed by Li Fei-Fei . In many Asian cultures, lastnames are common and not reliable as personal identifiers. My lastname Zhang, for example, is shared by over 100 million people worldwide.
