Agentic Robot Learning
How agents direct their own learning to acquire reliable, reusable robot skills.
I’m Guozheng Ma, a PhD student at Nanyang Technological University, advised by Dacheng Tao. Previously, I completed my master’s studies at Tsinghua University and my bachelor’s degree at Hunan University.
My research focuses on deep reinforcement learning: how agents can learn efficiently, scale, and keep adapting in open-ended environments. I study optimization, network sparsity, plasticity, and the interplay between offline knowledge and online experience. More broadly, I’m interested in RL as a way to understand and develop intelligence.
Greatness cannot be planned, so I play with joyful explorations!
How agents direct their own learning to acquire reliable, reusable robot skills.
How new experience and feedback improve an agent’s knowledge, strategies, and skills.
How learning evolves, why it stalls or degrades, and what enables it to scale.
