About Me

Wentao Zhang – Research Associate at NTU, working on LLM Agents and Financial AI.

Hi! I am Wentao Zhang, currently a Research Associate at Nanyang Technological University, advised by Prof. Bo An. Prior to this, I worked as a Research Engineer at Skywork AI 2050 Research (Nov 2024 – Feb 2026), focusing on LLM-powered multi-agent systems. I received my Master’s degree in Computer Science from Nanjing University and my Bachelor’s degree from Tianjin University of Finance and Economics.

My research primarily focuses on LLM-powered autonomous agents and Financial AI (AI4Finance), with a central theme of agent self-evolution — building systems that continuously improve themselves through closed-loop experience and protocol-level self-modification. I have worked on building hierarchical multi-agent frameworks for complex, long-horizon tasks such as web navigation, data analysis, and general computer control. I am also passionate about applying AI techniques — including deep reinforcement learning and large language models — to financial applications such as algorithmic trading, portfolio management, and end-to-end FinTech platforms.
