Biped Locomotion

My research involves machine learning algorithms for teams of agents in dynamic environments. Applications include strategy learning, cooperative planning, autonomous decision-making and opponent modelling. The learning algorithms have been demonstrated in NAO and Kondo robots in the real world as well as RoboCup simulations.
