Welcome to Topics in Grounded Language for Robotics! In the home, in the factory, and in the field, robots have been deployed for tasks such as vacuuming, assembling cars, and disarming explosives. As robots become more powerful and more autonomous, it is crucial to develop ways for people to communicate with them. Natural language is an intuitive and flexible way of enabling this type of communication. The aim of this course is to study how to endow robots with the ability to interact with humans using natural language and then build systems!
The course will cover foundational material in artificial intelligence, computational linguistics, and robotics, as well as a survey of recent conference and journal papers. A collaborative final project will provide an opportunity to more deeply engage with the material and provide a jumping-off point for future research.
We will use the course blog to post updates and host discussions about the papers. Stay tuned for more details!
