The research group focuses on fundamental reinforcement learning research and applying artificial intelligence to real-world settings in both simulated and physical environments.
The ADaMS Lab carries out research in the areas of design and manufacturing. The group has specialed equipement related to 3-D printing, additive manufacturing and others.
A research team developing robotics and artificial intelligence solutions for the building industry.
The BLINC Lab brings together a diverse group of inter-disciplinary researchers interested in collaborative research to improve sensory motor control and integration of advanced prosthetic and robotic systems.
The Vison and Robotics research group performs research in several areas of computer vision , robotics and medical imaging. In computer vision, they design methods for dynamic vision (tracking, visual servoing, on-line 3D modeling from images, dynamic textures). In medical imaging, they look at applications of variational methods and PDEs for various tasks like segmentation, registration, tumor growth prediction on MRI and DTI (tensor) data. In robotics, they design and build vision-based software for autonomous and semi-autonomous control of manipulators and mobile manipulators.
The Energy digitization Lab is concerned with the digitization of electrical energy systems across all levels, both horizontally and vertically: from IoT devices providing access to sensors and levers of the smart grid to cloud-based services for storing and processing the large amount of data produced by the modern electricity grids.
The Gamma Knife uses highly focused beams of radiation to treat brain conditions.
