Empirical Prediction of Pedestrian Comfort in Mobile Robot–Pedestrian Encounters

Alireza Jafari, Hong-Son Nguyen, Yen-Chen Liu

ICRA 2026poster

Mobile robots joining public spaces like sidewalks must care for pedestrian comfort. Many studies consider pedestrians' objective safety, for example, by developing collision avoidance algorithms, but not enough studies take the pedestrian's subjective safety or comfort into consideration. Quantifyi…

Position: Temporal Measurement Interval Determines Computational and Model Complexity in Single-Cell Perturbation Analysis

Alireza Jafari, Heman Shakeri, Hadi Daneshmand

ICML 2026spotlight

Single-cell perturbation analysis aims to predict how cellular states change after interventions such as drug treatments or genetic edits. A central difficulty is that pre- and post-perturbation measurements are typically observed as *unpaired* populations, so accurate prediction requires inferring …
