Issam Alzouby - AI Researcher

HI, I'M ISSAM

I am a PhD student at UNC Charlotte. My research focuses on generative models for human motion synthesis and perception. I develop AI systems for controllable, physically plausible motion generation. Currently exploring how language-guided learning can enable natural movement in humanoid robotics, and real-time digital twins across physical and virtual environments.
