Computer Vision News - September 2021

30 Women in Science You have a full group dedicated to this project. Yes, we have the ILIAD Group. It’s the Stanford Intelligent and Interactive Autonomous Systems Group. We have a good number of graduate students and undergrads working on interesting problems in this area. What are the most interesting problems that you are tackling? One of the most interesting directions that we are looking at is the study of repeated interactions, and how new norms or new conventions emerge when agents interact with each other over a period of time. In general, when people think about robotics, oftentimes Dorsa Sadigh is an Assistant Professor in Robotics at Stanford University in the Computer Science and Electrical Engineering Department. More than 100 inspiring interviews with successful Women in Computer Vision in our archive! Dorsa, can you tell us about what you do with robots? Sure, I work in the sub-area of human robot interaction. We are in general very interested in designing learning and controlling algorithms for robots that can safely and reliably interact with people and work with people. “You need to be tenacious, to be ambitious!”
