2 Research Interests My long-term research goal is the effective construction of autonomous agents where cognition, perception, and action are combined to address planning, execution, and learning tasks. My vision is that multiple intelligent robots with different sets of complementary capabilities will provide a seamless synergy of intelligence. Concretely, my research focuses on the continuous integration of reactive, deliberative planning, and control learning for teams of multiple agents acting in adversarial, dynamic, and uncertain environments. Multiagent learning, adversarial modeling, advice generation, reuse, and space and temporal abstraction are of particular interest. My multiagent and multirobot research interests have been motivated by and experimented in the domain of robot soccer. I continue to investigate effective planning, execution, and learning algorithms for deterministic and nondeterministic multiagent domains within my research projects CORAL (Collaborate, Observe, Reason, Act, and Learn), MAPEL (Multi-Agent Planning, Execution, and Learning), and the RoboSoccer and MultiRobot Lab. I have also researched on control learning approaches to automating the modeling and optimization of the performance of signal processing transforms.
