Deep Robotic Learning
Research assistant, Master thesis
Research focus: Automation and Robotics, Machine Learning, Service Robotics and Mobile Manipulation
Courses of study: Electrical Engineering, Informatics, Mechatronics
Job Description
Robots in the future will not be programmed anymore, they will be able to learn, self-adapt and improve. One approach that could solve this problem is the use of Deep Reinforcement Learning (Deep RL). Reinforcement Learning enables the robot explore through trial and error, while looking for the optimal solution. Deep Learning help us handle unstructured environments and deal with the high dimensionality of the real world. We will explore and test different algorithms and learning technics that will enable robots to learn more robust, safer and faster. I am looking for highly motivated students that are open to learn the latest AI concepts and apply them in robotics.
Your Responsibilities
- Paper research for the latest state of art in Deep Robotic Learning
- Training and learning the robot in simulation, while testing different learning approaches
- Implementation of the trained data in simulation into real “hands on” robots
Our Offer
- An interdisciplinary working environment with partners from science, industry and society
- A working environment and organization close to business
