Zilin Wang

Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford, UK

Hi there! I am a Computer Science Ph.D. student at the University of Oxford in the WhiRL and FLAIR labs. I am fortunated to be co-supervised by Professor Shimon Whiteson and Professor Jakob Foerster. I previously received a Master’s degree from Tsinghua University, supervised by Prof. Zhiyong Wu. Before that, I did my undergraduate at Dalian University of Technology.

My research focuses on developing general decision-making agents capable of interacting with complex and dynamic environments. Currently, I am exploring Deep Reinforcement Learning (Deep RL) as a core solution methodology.

In my sparse time, I enjoy running, hiking, badminton, and fitness, as well as anime and video games. Additionally, I am a ploy-glot, fluent in Mandarin, English, and Japanese. I love learning new languages because I believe a new language means a fresh perspective on this wonderful world!
