This one-year project will investigate the application of our recent approximate solver for Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDPs) to one of the physical robots in our lab, namely Hello Robot Stretch 3 for navigation in crowd.

The ideal candiate would:

  • Have a good understanding of basic probability
  • Fluent in programming
  • Have done well in Intelligent Robotics course (COMP4620/8620 in 2023 / 2025 or COMP4680/8650 in 2024)
  • Have a GPA >= 6.5/7.0
  • Experience with ROS2 and physical robot is a plus, though not necessary

If you are interested, please send me a copy of your CV and transcript via e-mail.
