Ethical and safe learning for deploying multi-robot systems in complex real-world environments AI research is being challenged with ensuring that autonomous agents, such as robots, learn behaviours that are both ethical (in alignment with moral values) and safe. Ángela Ribeiro (CAR), Maite López-Sánchez and Juan A. Rodríguez-Aguilar (IIIA) join efforts to address the problem of learning safe and ethical behaviour policies for robots in charge of agricultural tasks. Position Details: Duration: Two years Location: The candidate will spend one year at our centre, collaborating closely with our research team, and the second year at CAR in Madrid, another prestigious research institution within the ALLIES network. We’re looking for proposals that explore how to design learning environments for robots so that the policies they learn to accomplish their tasks are guaranteed to be safe and ethical, even when multiple robots are involved. This is a paradigm shift that focuses on the learning environment, instead of on the learning algorithm employed by each robot, to guarantee the properties that robots’ behaviours must exhibit. Gross Salary: 41,213.44 € per year (approx.)

INTEGRATION OF SAT SOLVING AND MACHINE LEARNING The project is set in the context of advancing the state-of-the-art of SAT (Boolean Satisfiability) and MaxSAT (Maximum Satisfiability) problem-solving by bridging the gap between symbolic and sub-symbolic AI. The significance of this advancement lies in its potential to handle problem instances with millions of variables and constraints which are currently beyond the scope of existing solvers. The specific challenge addressed by this project is solving large-scale combinatorial problems by integrating machine learning techniques into the realm of SAT/MaxSAT solving. Additionally, there is the challenge of defining suitable encodings for practical scheduling and planning problems in the domain of assistive robotics, and solving them with the resulting solvers. More information about this line here. Supervisor: Felip Manyà (IIIA) Supervisor: Guillem Alenyà (IRI) Position Details: Duration: Two years Location: The candidate will spend one year at our centre, collaborating closely with our research team, and the second year at IRI in Barcelona, another prestigious research institution within the ALLIES network. We’re looking for: Research proposals that explore the synergy between traditional SAT/MaxSAT solving and machine learning techniques. Proposals should aim at developing solvers capable of solving large and complex instances. Of particular interest are proposals aimed at addressing practical scheduling and planning challenges within the domain of assistive robotics. Gross Salary: 41,213.44 € per year (approx.)
