About Hermine Grosinger

Short bio

I am currently a researcher in Computer Science at the Center for Applied Autonomous Systems (AASS) where I am part of the Cognitive Robotics Lab. I received my PhD in Computer Science at the Örebro University, Sweden, in December 2019. Previously, I finished my Master and Bachelor in Medical Informatics at the Technical University of Vienna, Austria. I conducted parts of  my undergraduate studies at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden, and the University of Melbourne, Australia.

Research

My research interests lie within the field of AI for autonomous agents in a real-world setting. Specifically I am interested in making robots proactive. By this I mean enabling them to infer their own goals and acting decisions, which they then pursue and achieve. The question of making robots proactive comprises a variety of different areas within AI, among others, goal reasoning, context awareness, automatic planning, action execution and monitoring. My work so far has been using knowledge-based models employing different types of logic.
