About Me

Hello, I’m Zhilin Wang, a first-year PhD student at the University of Science and Technology of China and Shanghai AI Lab, under the supervision of Yu Cheng. Prior to this, I had the privilege of studying as a visiting student under the guidance of Yue Zhang at WestlakeNLP.

Currently, I am working on creating effective environments for reinforcement learning. Additionally, I am deeply interested in integrating AI with music theory, with the goal of developing AI musicians.
