PLISNIER is a PhD student at the Artificial Intelligence lab, under the supervision of Ann Nowé. Her research domain is Reinforcement Learning, with a focus on how humans/users can help RL agents learn faster to perform a task. Her end goal is to provide a learning architecture enabling users to teach new tasks to their assistive robot, and to customize its preprogrammed skills. PLISNIER obtained an FWO grant for strategic basic research, starting in January 2019.
