Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Artificial intelligence
  • Machine learning
  • Statistics

His primary areas of investigation include Artificial intelligence, Robot, Structure, Cognitive map and Machine learning. His study in Artificial intelligence is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Theoretical computer science and Set. His studies deal with areas such as Measure, Perception and Computer vision as well as Robot.

Benjamin Kuipers has included themes like Current, Set, Contradiction and Hierarchy in his Structure study. He has researched Cognitive map in several fields, including Spatial knowledge, Space, Observer and Topological map. His Machine learning research focuses on Body of knowledge and how it connects with Knowledge-based systems, Legal expert system, Cognitive model and Domain.

His most cited work include:

  • Computer Power and Human Reason (761 citations)
  • Modeling Spatial Knowledge (655 citations)
  • Qualitative Reasoning: Modeling and Simulation with Incomplete Knowledge (640 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Artificial intelligence, Robot, Mobile robot, Human–computer interaction and Cognitive map are his primary areas of study. Benjamin Kuipers works in the field of Artificial intelligence, focusing on Qualitative reasoning in particular. Benjamin Kuipers combines subjects such as Object and Reinforcement learning with his study of Robot.

While the research belongs to areas of Mobile robot, Benjamin Kuipers spends his time largely on the problem of Motion planning, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Mathematical optimization. He interconnects Space and Hierarchy in the investigation of issues within Cognitive map. His work carried out in the field of Structure brings together such families of science as Representation and Set.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Artificial intelligence (50.97%)
  • Robot (27.03%)
  • Mobile robot (14.67%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2020)?

  • Artificial intelligence (50.97%)
  • Robot (27.03%)
  • Human–computer interaction (11.97%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Benjamin Kuipers spends much of his time researching Artificial intelligence, Robot, Human–computer interaction, Mobile robot and Motion planning. His work deals with themes such as Machine learning and Computer vision, which intersect with Artificial intelligence. His research integrates issues of Imitation and Action in his study of Robot.

His Human–computer interaction study combines topics in areas such as Markov decision process, Feature learning and Embodied cognition. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Simulation and Control theory. His Semantics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Class, Cognitive map and Set.

Between 2010 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Recognizing human actions by attributes (480 citations)
  • Cross-view action recognition via view knowledge transfer (234 citations)
  • Autonomous Learning of High-Level States and Actions in Continuous Environments (77 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Artificial intelligence
  • Machine learning
  • Statistics

His main research concerns Artificial intelligence, Robot, Mobile robot, Motion planning and Human–computer interaction. His Artificial intelligence research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Machine learning, Computer vision and Set. Benjamin Kuipers regularly ties together related areas like Plan in his Robot studies.

He combines subjects such as Lidar, Tracking and Noise with his study of Mobile robot. His study in Motion planning is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Video tracking, Specular reflection and Normative. His Human–computer interaction study incorporates themes from Legibility, Wheelchair, Norm and Topological map.
