Rui is a PhD researcher in the Explainable Machine Learning group at the Technical University of Munich, advised by Prof. Dr. Zeynep Akata and Prof. Dr. Stephan Alaniz. His research is on learning across modalities and domains, with a particular focus on the fine-grained visual capabilities of vision-language models — what they actually perceive, where they fail, and how to make them see more faithfully.
Before starting his PhD he received an M.Sc. in Robotics, Cognition and Intelligence from TUM, and a B.Eng. in Automotive Engineering from Jilin University, China.
