I develop low-cost multirotor drones as mobile wind-sensing platforms, estimating wind speed and direction from telemetry and attitude response, then reconstructing local wind fields with Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs). In parallel, I build physics-guided forecasting systems for wind-energy integration and grid reliability, and spatio-temporal models for urban heat-risk early warning.

I work on low-cost drone-based wind estimation and wind-field reconstruction. This research uses multirotor telemetry, reference wind measurements, and physics-informed learning to estimate ambient wind and recover local flow structure from sparse aerial observations.
The current focus is robust estimation under real flight conditions, Physics-Informed Neural Network reconstruction, cross-platform generalization, and deployable inference pipelines for field experiments and atmospheric sensing.

I design physics-informed sequence models for wind, load, and near-surface temperature forecasting, targeting grid reliability and urban thermal-stress early warning. This includes regime-adaptive focal losses, adaptive physics penalties, attention-equipped hybrid recurrent / convolutional temporal modules, and hardware-aware optimization for Jetson-class devices.
I led research end-to-end from problem formulation to publication, producing 6 first-author papers. The work aligns with a provincial Key R&D program on wind energy and grid optimization (Project 2020WK2007).
