Anastasia BolotnikovaIn April 2021, Anastasia Bolotnikova has joined the CIS collaboration grant on Assistive Distributed Robotics. The focus of the project is on development and integration of the robotics solution into an Intelligent Assistive Environment, in collaboration with Professor Jamie Paik (RRL) and Professor Auke Ijspeert (BioRob).
Anastasia has received her M.Sc diploma in Computer Science from University of Tartu, Estonia, in 2017. She has received her Ph.D. diploma in Robotics from the University of Montpellier, France, in March of 2021. During her Ph.D studies she was working as a robotics researcher at SoftBank Robotics Europe (Paris). The focus of her doctoral research was on the use of humanoid robot technology for assistance to frail or elderly.
Her research interests include robot control, motion planning, human-robot interaction and the application of robotics technologies in the context of assistance for people with special needs.
Tony Alan WoodTony A. Wood received a B.Sc. degree in Information Technology and Electrical Engineering in 2010 and an M.Sc. degree in Robotics, Systems and Control in 2013, both from ETH Zurich, Switzerland. In 2018 he completed a Ph.D. at the Automatic Control Laboratory of ETH Zurich. From 2018 to 2021, he was a Research Fellow in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of Melbourne, Australia. He is currently a Scientist in the Systems Control and Multiagent Optimization Research Group (Sycamore) at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland. His research interests lie in the fields of optimisation and automatic control with a particular focus on multi-agent systems. The specific topics he investigates include system identification, task allocation, path planning, model predictive control, delay compensation, and formal specification satisfaction for uncertain systems encountered in applications such as energy systems, smart buildings, biology, and robotics.
