Behavior-Inspired Neural Networks for Relational Inference

AISTATS 2025poster

From pedestrians to Kuramoto oscillators, interactions between agents govern how dynamical systems evolve in space and time. Discovering how these agents relate to each other has the potential to improve our understanding of the often complex dynamics that underlie these systems. Recent works learn…

Safety with Agency: Human-Centered Safety Filter with Application to AI-Assisted Motorsports

RSS 2025poster

Recent advances in safe autonomy open new opportunities in assisting humans in safety-critical and time-sensitive tasks such as motorsports. However, existing safe control algorithms predominantly focus on fully automated settings and often undermine key requirements in human–AI shared control domai…

Blending Data-Driven Priors in Dynamic Games

RSS 2024poster

As intelligent robots like autonomous vehicles become increasingly deployed in the presence of people, the extent to which these systems should leverage model-based game-theoretic planners versus data-driven policies for safe, interaction-aware motion planning remains an open question. Existing dyna…

One More Step Towards Reality: Cooperative Bandits with Imperfect Communication

NeurIPS 2021poster

The cooperative bandit problem is increasingly becoming relevant due to its applications in large-scale decision-making. However, most research for this problem focuses exclusively on the setting with perfect communication, whereas in most real-world distributed settings, communication is often over…

Unsupervised Learning of Lagrangian Dynamics from Images for Prediction and Control

NeurIPS 2020poster

Recent approaches for modelling dynamics of physical systems with neural networks enforce Lagrangian or Hamiltonian structure to improve prediction and generalization. However, when coordinates are embedded in high-dimensional data such as images, these approaches either lose interpretability or can…
