Om Shih-Min Yang

I am a Ph.D. student in computer science at Örebro University in Sweden. I am working on the DARKO EU project and affiliated with Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program (WASP).

My research focuses on improving learning efficiency in reinforcement learning, with a practical application in complex robotic manipulation tasks. I have previously submitted a paper on using reinforcement learning to acquire extrinsic dexterity skills for flipping and grasping objects. Currently, my ongoing work involves developing a paper that combines hierarchical reinforcement learning and curiosity-driven exploration to address challenges related to sparse reward issues.
