Non-Equilibrium Game Theory for Cooperative Systems
Robots that work directly with humans are on the rise in many areas, for example in medical technology, care and industrial production. To ensure that this collaboration is safe and efficient, humans must be specifically taken into account when designing and controlling such systems.
As human movements can often be described as solutions to optimisation problems, it makes sense to also optimally adapt the robot to this behaviour; an approach that is being investigated in so-called dynamic game theory. However, before a state of mutual optimality (also known as equilibrium) can be achieved, humans and machines must first get to know each other and adapt to each other. What makes it exciting is that both sides adapt simultaneously: a dynamic process of mutual co-adaptation.
In my research, I am concerned with the systematic description of such learning processes. I am investigating how human learning behaviour can be modelled, whether and under what conditions the learning processes converge to an equilibrium and how the robot can be designed in such a way that it specifically supports this process. The aim is to make human-robot collaboration safer, more efficient and more intuitive.

If you are interested in topics such as human-robot collaboration, optimisation or adaptive control for your thesis, I look forward to hearing from you!
