We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our team in developing advanced models for cooperative interactions. The project focuses on integrating Theory of Mind (ToM) to enhance negotiations between robots and humans, using computational argumentation and negotiation techniques to determine optimal courses of action. The ideal candidate will contribute to the strategic application of ToM, aiming to simplify negotiation processes and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of robotic collaboration. This research has applications in areas such as multi-agent systems and human-robot interaction.

The Ramon Llull-AIRA Postdoctoral Programme (RAMON LLULL) is an esteemed international initiative co-funded by the Marie Sklodowska-Curie programme under Horizon Europe.

This innovative program is dedicated to advancing research in artificial intelligence (AI) and will provide 33 three-year fellowships to cultivate interdisciplinary projects and nurture competent scientific leaders in AI.
