Longtao Zheng 郑龙韬

Longtao Zheng is a PhD student at the College of Computing and Data Science, Nanyang Technological University (NTU) Singapore, advised by Prof. Bo An. Previously, he obtained his Bachelor's degree in computer science from University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) in 2022. His research focuses on foundation models for decision making, controllable video generation, and reinforcement learning.

Research Highlights

Motivated by the goal of creating general-purpose agents that can interact with the digital world, my work primarily focused on using the Internet-scale knowledge within foundation models to generalize beyond available data and to unseen situations. I am also interested in training agents and world models from videos.
