Invited Talks

Ordered chronologically, most recent first.

  • At the Third SET & SysCom HDR/ECR Conference (2024) of UNSW Canberra, I gave an invited talk on Success in Academia.
  • At ICAPS 2024 I will give a tutorial on HTN Planning as part of the ICAPS 2024 Summer School. Note that I was also an organizer of summer school, so being "invited" is borderline-true. However, I did indeed get invited because I was not responsible for the program but for organizational matters -- and I have indeed been invited by the co-organizer who was responsible for the program.
  • Talk at AAAI 2021 in their New Faculty Highlights Invited Speaker Program, which highlights AI researchers who have just begun careers as new faculty members (or the equivalent in industry). I presented an overview of my work until then. Video presentation. List of all presentations by all speakers
  • At ICAPS 2018 I gave a tutorial on HTN Planning, together with my former colleague Daniel Höller. The tutorial had two parts, each talking 90 minutes. Note that this was indeed invited as we did not apply for this, but were approached by the conference organizers to create this tutorial.
  • Keynote speech about Companion Systems at the Digital Companion Workshop at MuC (Mensch und Computer; eng.: Human and Computer) 2018 in Dresden, Germany. Slides. Slides including embedded videos.
  • At KI 2017 I presented my 2017 IJCAI paper An admissible HTN planning heuristic in the "sister conference track".
