DESCRIPTION:This event will be available live at SEMI\, as well as over Zoo
 m. Get to SEMI by 6:30pm to network – and enjoy great pizza and refreshm
 ents! All attendees MUST register using the Eventbrite form (see link).\n\
 nFor people with motor impairments\, assistive robotic manipulators can he
 lp them perform daily activities such as pick-and-place tasks\, opening do
 ors\, pushing buttons\, eating\, and even personal hygiene. As such\, thes
 e robotic devices have the potential to allow such individuals to regain s
 ome independence in performing these tasks. However\, human interaction wi
 th these manipulators can often be very challenging.\n\nIn this talk\, Mar
 ia Kyrarini will describe a robot learning framework that empowers a robot
 ic device to automatically generate a sequence of actions from unstructure
 d spoken language\, along with the preliminary results form her recent stu
 dy with 30 participants to evaluate this framework. She will also present 
 the preliminary results from her recent grant from the National Science Fo
 undation (NSF) on developing a personalized assistive robotic system that 
 assesses cognitive fatigue in persons with paralysis.\n\nSpeaker(s): Maria
