Ph.D., Postdoctoral Researcher, A*STAR CFAR, Singapore
I am a postdoctoral researcher at A*STAR CFAR, as part of the Agentic AI pillar.
I finished my Ph.D. at Nanjing University, advised by Prof. Yu-Feng Li, and was a member of LAMDA Group, led by Prof. Zhi-Hua Zhou.
Our long-term goal is to build general and robust AI agents that contribute to the advancement of artificial general intelligence (AGI), enhance social productivity, and improve people's well-being. Our core approach centers on neuro-symbolic learning, which bridges data-driven learning with symbolic-driven search and reasoning, often regarded as the hallmark of third-generation AI. The neural component provides grounding in perception and physical interaction, while the symbolic component augments reasoning and planning.
Recently, my research has primarily focused on improving the generalization and data efficiency of Large Language Model-driven Agentic Systems, with the aim of advancing research on open scientific problems.
RESEARCH COLLABORATION
I welcome inquiries about remote research internships, particularly from undergraduate students based in China or Singapore. If you are interested in an internship or a research collaboration, please feel free to reach out (shaojj@lamda.nju.edu.cn).

A comprehensive ecosystem to advance language agents for real-world travel planning:
I am deeply grateful to these students for the opportunity to learn, grow, and explore research together. I am also open to new research collaborations: undergraduate students interested in research internships are welcome to contact me; currently, I only accept remote arrangements.
