Ensuring safe planning and control is paramount when we deploy autonomous robots in complex environments around humans, such as in agricultural or food-production applications. Unsafe decisions of autonomous robots may damage their hardware, the environment, or even harm humans. Together with an interdisciplinary team, we investigate new algorithmic foundations to ensure that robots only execute safe and desired decisions and plans. Whenever our algorithms detect potentially unsafe situations while the robot is operating, they execute countermeasures to keep the robot in a safe state. Such online verification algorithms allow us to mathematically prove the robot’s safety. To demonstrate and evaluate our algorithms, we work with various robotic systems such as mobile manipulators, quadrupeds, and drones, and deploy them in complex real-world environments.We are looking for an enthusiastic and open team player to help us develop the next generation of verification techniques that automatically certify the safety of autonomous robots in real-world environments. You will be working together with us on new techniques to specify rich safety constraints that autonomous robots need to adhere to, synthesize verification algorithms that ensure safe planning and control, and adapt models on the fly during the robot’s operation to account for uncertainties.

The presence of rich flow structures in the atmosphere and ocean down to the scales of atmospheric convection O (100 m - 10 km) has sparked renewed interest across atmospheric and ocean scientists in recent years. How does this diverse wind structure influence the exchange of energy and momentum through the air-sea interface, and impact weather and climate? Marine cumulus clouds, especially during rain, are one of the drivers of large wind variability and leave a clear imprint on ocean surface roughness seen in high-resolution Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery. These multi-scale, heterogeneous wind patterns may change the surface wind stress in ways we do not understand.

Context: Runtime information such as metrics, traces, and logs is currently outside the scope of the IDE. It is possible to develop, design, and refactor a system in an IDE, but only a few plugins make it possible to consider the available runtime information during the development process in the IDE. Developers can use various observability tools to receive alerts and create dashboards that can impact development, but getting feedback from runtime information directly in the IDE is difficult.Goal: The goal of this project is to study how we can process runtime and observability data to improve the development process in the IDE. There are a lot of different research directions, such as anomaly detection, improving code generation and refactoring, creating smart tips for developers, and developing debugging and profiling assistants. The solution can be either ML or non-ML.Note: This PhD position is part of the AI for Software Engineering lab (AI4SE), a collaboration between JetBrains and Delft University of Technology.
