The lab studies machine learning and reinforcement learning that let machines adapt to people.

AboutAbout the lab
Realizing technology in which machines adapt to people.
The Machine Intelligence Lab studies technology that lets "machines adapt to people" rather than "people adapt to machines."
The lab focuses on the software that controls systems, and is strong in machine learning, a field within artificial intelligence.
Machine learning is a technology that trains machines using data so that they behave in ways that are useful to people.
Rather than having machines learn everything, the lab's policy is to actively incorporate premises and knowledge that are already known, and it approaches the work from both theoretical and applied sides.
Key terms
- Machine learning
- Machine learning: an artificial intelligence technology that trains machines using data so that they behave in ways that are useful to people.
- Reinforcement learning
- Reinforcement learning: a learning framework in which a learner proactively learns appropriate behavior through trial and error.
- Reward
- Reward: a signal that tells the learner "that was good." In reinforcement learning, this is the only thing the designer designs.
ResearchResearch themes
The Machine Intelligence Lab studies the software that controls systems as a technology for letting "machines adapt to people." Building on technologies from information fields such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, the lab explores new forms of machine intelligence.
