Long Le

I'm a PhD student at the University of Pennsylvania, where my research focuses on robot learning and autonomous systems.

I have worked as a Software Engineer at Google (2022), as an Intern at Robotics Institute, CMU (2021), and as an Intern at Instagram (2020).

Research

I am interested in scalable robot learning. Below are my works.

Articulate Anything

International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR), 2025

A major bottleneck in scaling robot learning in simulation is the lack of interactable 3D environments. We present a SOTA method, leveraging VLMs to automatically generate articulated 3D models from any input modality including text, real-world images, or videos.

Distributed Continual Learning
Long Le, Marcel Hussing, and Eric Eaton
Preprint, 2024
ArXiv

We study the intersection of continual and federated learning, in which independent agents face unique tasks. We develop the mathematical formulation for the setting, develop algorithms for sharing data, model weights, and modules, and provide extensive empirical results across network bandwidths, and topology.

A collective AI via lifelong learning and sharing at the edge

Nature Machine Intelligence, 2024
Paper

We survey approaches and challenges in developing a collaborative life-long AI system on edge devices.
