Dr. Koenig's research centers around techniques for decision making (planning and learning) that enable situated agents to act intelligently in their environments and exhibit goal-directed behavior in real-time, even if they have only incomplete knowledge of their environment, limited or noisy perception, imperfect abilities to manipulate it, or insufficient reasoning speed. I believe that finding good solutions to this problem requires approaches that cut across many different fields. My research draws on areas such as artificial intelligence, robotics, decision theory, and operations research. So far, I am working on applications to mobile scouting and delivery robots as well as decision-support systems for businesses and environmental crisis situations, but I am always looking for new applications.
