HI all,
One last announcement regarding this seminar. We will keep the zoom on for the student session afterwards until 3pm, so students are welcome to stay on for questions over zoom
if they are not in Graf.

Hi all,
Unfortunately, we will need to delay Nils Wilde’s seminar another day to Thursday Jan 18 1-2pm (note NOW IN GRAF 300): the updated information is below:
Dr. Nils Wilde will
be presenting his work on Preference Learning and Multi-Objective Planning for Autonomous Systems on Wednesday (Jan 18th) at 1:00 - 2:00 pm in Graf 300 and via Zoom. Afterward, from 2:15-3:00 pm, there will be a student-postdoc Q&A session with Dr. Wilde in
Rogers 226 (note updated location of Graf 300 for both meetings). See below for Dr. Wilde's abstract and bio.
Hope that you can make it!

Date: Thursday, January 18, 2024
Time: 1 pm Pacific Time
In-person location: Graf 300

Seminar Title: Preference Learning and Multi-Objective Planning for Autonomous Systems
Speaker: Dr. Nils Wilde, https://sites.google.com/view/nwilde/home
Seminar information provided by the speaker:
Abstract:
The deployment of autonomous robots in real-world settings often requires planning and decision making under multiple competing objectives. Which trade-off between objectives is the most adequate often depends on the
respective end-user. Thus, a central problem is how inexperienced users can adapt autonomous systems to their preferences. In this talk we focus on two parts of the problem. First, we study human-in-the-loop learning frameworks that allow users to customize
robot behaviour to their preferences through a sequence of simple interactions. One such interaction mode is choice feedback where users choose between two presented options, allowing for effectively learning user preference within few iterations. In the second
part, we study the challenge of exploring optimal trade-offs for multi-objective robot planning problems. We establish fundamental theoretical properties that allow for efficient algorithm design. Applications of the presented work include high-level motion
planning in human-centered environments, manipulation in servicing tasks, environmental monitoring, vehicle routing, and multi-robot pickup and delivery.
Speaker Bio:
Nils Wilde is
currently a postdoctoral fellow in the Autonomous Multi-Robots Lab at TU Delft, working with Javier Alonso-Mora. Until 2021 he was a postdoctoral fellow at the Autonomous Systems Lab at the University of Waterloo where he also did his PhD in Electrical and
Computer Engineering under the co-supervision of Dana Kulić and Stephen L. Smith from 2016 to 2020. Before that he completed his BSc. and MSc. degrees at the Technical University Berlin in 2012 and 2016, respectively. Nils'
research combines robot motion planning, multi-robot coordination, and human-robot interaction (HRI), developing algorithmic frameworks on the intersection of control, learning and optimization.
