PostDoc grant in Decentralized Planning under Uncertainty A postdoctoral research grant is available at the Institute for Systems and Robotics (ISR) of the Instituto Superior Técnico, Lisbon, in the area of Decision-theoretic Planning under Uncertainty for Cooperative Systems. The research will consist of developing theory and algorithms for decentralized planning under uncertainty, with a focus on multirobot teams. The candidate should have experience with sequential decision-making frameworks such as (partially observable) Markov decision processes (MDPs/POMDPs), as well as experience with cooperative multiagent systems. The research activities will take place at ISR-Lisbon's Intelligent Systems Laboratory (http://islab.isr.ist.utl.pt). Candidates should submit their application until Dec 5 and the selected candidate should expect and be ready to start his/her work soon after that date.
1.
