Decision Making with Multimodal Learning
![](https://dsa.hkust-gz.edu.cn/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/zheng-tian.jpg)
ABSTRACT
With the advent of multimodal large (language) models (MMLMs), a new paradigm in decision-making research has emerged, where multimodal learning can potentially enhance an AI agent's robustness, generality, and learning efficiency in decision-making. This presentation will first introduce my past research achievements, covering deep reinforcement learning (DRL) and multi-agent systems. Then we will discuss my current research agenda, focusing on developing multi-modal decision-making systems that leverage the strengths of these advanced technologies to address complex, dynamic, and interactive environments. By bridging my past and present research and highlighting the synergy between these advanced AI technologies, the presentation aims to showcase novel methodologies for building decision-making systems capable of operating in complex and dynamic environments.
