Short Bio:
I am a Principal Research Staff Member at IBM T.J. Watson Research Center in
Yorktown Heights, New York. My research interests are in the area of Artificial
Intelligence (AI), focusing on automated planning and autonomous systems, as
well as integration of planning and reinforcement learning techniques.
I am currently a member of ICAPS executive council (6 years term), having served as a program co-chair of ICAPS 2021.
I am a co-creator of the PRL workshop series and
a co-organizer of several editions: PRL@ICAPS'20, PRL@ICAPS'22, PRL@IJCAI'22, PRL@ICAPS'23, and PRL@IJCAI'23.
I was also a co-organizer of many HSDIP@ICAPS workshop editions: HSDIP'11,'13,'14,'15,'16,'18,'22.
I was the Publicity Chair and Video Chair of ICAPS'15 and a lecturer at the ICAPS'13 Summer School.
I regularly serve on the PC/SPC/AC of ICAPS, IJCAI and AAAI.
I have joined IBM T. J. Watson Research Center in 2017. Prior to that I was at
IBM Watson Health and IBM Research Haifa, Israel since 2013.
Prior to joining IBM, I have spent two years in France and Germany, doing a
postdoc hosted by Prof. Joerg Hoffmann at the Institut national de recherche en
informatique et en automatique (INRIA), Nancy, France and in the Department of
Computer Science, Saarland University, Germany. Before that I was a postdoc at
the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology,
where I also did my PhD
and BA studies.
