Chenxiao Gao

Georgia Institute of Technology

I am a Machine Learning Ph.D. student at Georgia Institute of Technology, advised by Prof. Bo Dai. I am fortunate to collaborate with Prof. Na Li and the students in her group at Harvard University. Before starting my Ph.D., I received my bachelorโ€™s and masterโ€™s degrees from Nanjing University, where I conducted research in the LAMDA group.

My research focuses on reinforcement learning (RL) and generative modeling, with applications to LLM agents and robotics. My work spans three directions:
