This seminar covers the latest breakthroughs in various aspects of intelligent robotics, enabling the creation of systems that can autonomously perceive and manipulate objects in complex, real-world environments such as homes, restaurants, and supermarkets. Throughout this seminar, we will navigate through the domains of robot control, perception, planning, and decision-making, focusing on state-of-the-art methods from recent years. Our primary objective is to provide participants with a comprehensive grasp of the cutting-edge research endeavors driving the development of intelligent robots.

The seminar is a combination of a reading group and some invite talks. After an introductory lecture about the seminar,  each student will be assigned a research paper. The student shall present the basic concept of the paper in class and engage in discussion regarding the presented topics. Additionally, students working on related subjects will be organized into groups, where they will collaboratively prepare chapters that interconnect various works, ending in group presentations at the conclusion of the seminar. This approach ensures a rich and well-rounded exploration of the landscape of intelligent robotics research.

 

List of topics:

  • Robot Control: Robot Kinematics and trajectory generation.
  • Perception: object-centric approaches and D geometry.
  • Planning: Task and Motion Planning and planning under uncertainty.
  • Decision-making: World models and causality.

 

Grading scheme:

  • Active participation (individual): 10%
  • Slides (individual): 15%
  • Presentation (individual): 35%
  • Final chapter and presentation (group): 40%

Preconditions
