Zhancun Mu

I am Zhancun Mu (牟湛存), currently a Ph.D. candidate at the Institute for Artificial Intelligence under the supervision of Professor Yitao Liang. I graduated from Tong Class, Yuanpei College, Peking University in 2025.

My research focuses on developing autonomous agents capable of operating in open-ended, dynamic environments such as Minecraft. I concentrate on two key elements: designing robust planning systems that enable agents to make complex decisions over long time horizons, and creating intuitive controllers that allow agents to seamlessly interact with their environments.

I am keenly interested in multi-agent systems, cognitive reasoning, and developing computational models that capture aspects of human-like intelligence. My ultimate vision is to develop intelligent agents that can autonomously explore, understand, and shape open-ended environments.
