Ken Goldberg at WAFR 2018

The 13th International Workshop on the Algorithmic Foundations of Robotics took place at the Universidad Politécnica de Yucatán in Mérida, Mexico on December 9-11. Ken Goldberg attended as a speaker for two lectures - Generalizing Robot Imitation Learning with Invariant Hidden Semi-Markov Models and A Dynamic Regret Analysis and Adaptive Regularization Algorithm for On-Policy Robot Imitation Learning - as well as a chair for The "Learning in Planning" session with Byron Boots and Nilanjan Chakraborty.

About WAFR

The Workshop on the Algorithmic Foundations of Robotics (WAFR) is a multi-disciplinary single-track workshop with submitted and invited papers on advances on algorithmic problems in robotics. WAFR was created in 1994 as a small-size workshop. It has been held every other year since 1994 and while it spans a relatively small community, it has an established reputation as one, if not the most, important venue for presenting algorithmic work related to robotics. The workshop proceedings will be published in the Springer Proceedings in Advanced Robotics (SPAR) series and selected papers will be invited for publication in a special issue of the International Journal of Robotics Research.
