Human-Robot Interactions and Social Robotics with Professor Marynel Vasquez

From AAAI

About Professor Marynel Vasquez: Marynel Vázquez is a computer scientist and roboticist whose research focuses on Human-Robot Interaction (HRI), particularly in multi-party settings. She studies social group dynamics—such as spatial behavior and social influence—in HRI, and develops perception and decision-making algorithms that enable autonomous, socially aware robot behavior. A central theme in her work is modeling interactions as graphs, allowing robots to reason about individuals, relatio...
