Come see Arjun Krishna and Kin Man Lee present their awesome work at #HRI2023 on rapid, proximate human-robot collaboration today in session 1.C!

Mariah Schrum and Matthew Gombolay discuss practices for measuring a respondent’s perception in a survey. Mariah Schrum Matthew Gombolay Georgia Tech Computing Robotics@GT dataskeptic.com/blog/episodes/…

Happy #nationalroboticsweek everyone! Here's a look at Matthew Gombolay's passion project. Meet ESTHER, an autonomous mobile tennis robot that could lead to new advancements in fast-moving and precision robotics National Robotics Week Robotics@GT Georgia Tech Computing b.gatech.edu/43sDZyO

Here's how you tell a story! Congrats to our own Sravan Jayanthi for his impressive narrative on our collaboration with NASA JPL for human-centered path planning for Curiosity Rover. Sravan won the Three Minute Thesis Competition for MS Thesis at GaTech. Link: youtube.com/watch?v=yOZint…

Congratulations Dr. ⁦⁦Esmaeil (Esi) Seraj⁩ on successfully defending your thesis on “Enhancing Teamwork in Multi-robot Systems!” Esi’s work ranges from distributed controls to reinforcement learning to human-robot interaction. Impressive representing the ⁦CORE Robotics Lab⁩!

Congrats to newly-minted Dr. Andrew Silva! Andrew helped me found the CORE Robotics Lab, and his transformative research has contributed to interactive ML, explainable AI, federated learning, bias in ML, LLMs, and human-robot interaction! He has also forged strong research

Congratulations, Eric Cole! Collaborating with Eric and his colleagues Emory University has been a highlight of my time as faculty. Together with Mariah Schrum et al., we are developing new AI techniques to help treat patients with Deep Brain Stimulation. DBS Think Tank

Congrats my friends, Andrew Silva and Rohan Paleja, on your PhDs! You entrusted me with your training 5 years ago when I founded the CORE Robotics Lab, and you both rocked it. Thank you! Robotics@GT Georgia Tech Computing

Autonomous vehicles (AVs) can cause motion sickness and be unpleasant if the car drives differently than how its occupants expect. Should AVs then just learn to drive in the style of its occupants? Surprisingly, No!!! A🧵on our latest IEEE Transactions on Robotics (T-RO) paper...1/5 ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10415…

Unpopular Take: Bravo to Dartmouth to bring back SATs. It is far better to keep imperfect metrics that can be characterized, adjusted for bias, and improved rather than the status quo: nebulous metrics with *hidden* bias (e.g., letters of recommendation). usatoday.com/story/news/edu…

We're excited to welcome Professor @AncaDianaDragan from UC Berkeley as our Head of AI Safety and Alignment to guide how we develop and deploy advanced AI systems responsibly. She explains what her role involves. ↓
