Quantao Yang

I'm a postdoc researcher at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, working with Prof. Olov Andersson. I'm passionate about developing intelligent robotic agents capable of executing tasks across various real-world environments.

I did my PhD in Computer Science at Örebro University, where I was advised by Prof. Todor Stoyanov and Prof. Johannes Andreas Stork.
