Kang Chen
I study neuromorphic vision, 3D vision, and reinforcement learning for vision-language-action models, with a focus on turning event and spike streams into useful perception systems.
In 2023, I cooperated closely with Prof. Lei Yu at Wuhan University on event-based motion deblurring. I am now pursuing a Ph.D. degree in Artificial Intelligence at Peking University under the guidance of Prof. Tiejun Huang and Prof. Zhaofei Yu. I have also joined Beijing Zhongguancun Academy, where I study post-training RL for VLA under the guidance of Prof. Chao Yu. If you would like to discuss research or collaboration, feel free to contact me via email.

πRL: Online RL Fine-tuning for Flow-based Vision-Language-Action Models
Kang Chen, Zhihao Liu, Tonghe Zhang, Zhen Guo, Si Xu, Hao Lin, Hongzhi Zang, Quanlu Zhang, Zhaofei Yu, Guoliang Fan, Tiejun Huang, Yu Wang, Chao Yu
- We introduce πRL, the first open-source framework for efficient RL fine-tuning with flow-based VLAs.

USP-Gaussian: Unifying Spike-based Image Reconstruction, Pose Correction and Gaussian Splatting
Kang Chen, Jiyuan Zhang, Zecheng Hao, Yajing Zheng, Tiejun Huang and Zhaofei Yu
- We demonstrate that Spike-to-Image and 3D reconstruction tasks can mutually facilitate and enhance the optimization of each other.

SpikeReveal: Unlocking Temporal Sequences from Real Blurry Inputs with Spike Streams
Kang Chen, Shiyan Chen, Jiyuan Zhang, Baoyue Zhang, Yajing Zheng, Tiejun Huang and Zhaofei Yu
- We develop a self-supervised spike-guided image deblurring framework, addressing the performance degradation due to the synthetic-real domain gap in supervised methods.

Rethinking High-speed Image Reconstruction Framework with Spike Camera
Kang Chen, Yajing Zheng, Tiejun Huang and Zhaofei Yu
- We introduce a novel spike-based image reconstruction framework, which leverages the CLIP model to supervise the network training by the class label of the captured object and the features of high-quality images.

Motion Deblur by Learning Residual from Events
Kang Chen and Lei Yu
- We propose a Two-Stage Residual-based Motion Deblurring (TRMD) framework for event cameras, which utilizes the residual sequence as the intermediate variable, providing a stronger supervision signal for network training.
