PhD position in HRI at VU Amsterdam, focusing on interactive alignment
The Social AI group at VU Amsterdam is looking to hire a PhD candidate on the topic of Interactive Alignment for HRI, in collaboration with Idiap Research Institute. This project tackles a fundamental challenge in human-robot interaction: how can we align human and robot mental models for better collaboration?
The research will combine reinforcement learning, human-in-the-loop feedback, and insights from psychology to create adaptive, user-aware robot behavior. You will validate your methods through interactive experiments using real robotic platforms in collaborative tasks such as assembly and cooking.
