Abstract
The use of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence to monitor, learn and diagnose help required in settings ranging from care homes, medical rehabilitation centres to smart factories and assisted co-work is at the cusp of real-world translation. Robotics is playing a crucial role in scenarios that goes beyond monitoring and analysis but exploiting physical human-robot interactions to deliver physical change and assistance. Crucial issues still exist about the role of autonomy in such solutions — how we can seamlessly move between shared control and fully autonomous operations. My talk will shed light on progress made in this space and set out a roadmap that the Alan Turing Institute and Edinburgh Centre for Robotics has been following to deliver cutting edge impact.

Sethu Vijayakumar is the Professor of Robotics at the University of Edinburgh, UK and the Director of the Edinburgh Centre for Robotics. He has pioneered the use of large-scale machine learning techniques in the real-time control of several iconic robotic platforms such as the SARCOS and the HONDA ASIMO humanoids, KUKA-LWR robot arm and iLIMB prosthetic hand. One of his landmark projects (2016) involves a collaboration with NASA Johnson Space Centre on the Valkyrie humanoid robot being prepared for unmanned robotic pre-deployment missions to Mars. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, a judge on BBC Robot Wars and winner of the 2015 Tam Dalyell Prize for excellence in engaging the public with science. Professor Vijayakumar helps shape and drive the national Robotics and Autonomous Systems (RAS) agenda in his recent role as the Programme Director for Robotics and Human AI Interfaces at The Alan Turing Institute, the UK’s national institute for data science and AI.
