Voice Based Interfaces for Supermarket robots using Large Language Models

This thesis presents the design and evaluation of a comprehensive system for developing voice-based interfaces to support users in supermarkets. These interfaces enable customers to convey their needs across both generic and specific queries. While current state-of-the-art systems like GPTs by OpenAI are easily accessible and adaptable,...

Language Assistance in Reinforcement Learning in Dynamic Environments

Language is an intuitive and effective way for humans to communicate. Large Language Models (LLMs) can interpret and respond well to language. However, their use in deep reinforcement learning is limited as they are sample inefficient. State-of-the-art deep reinforcement learning algorithms are more sample efficient but cannot understand...

Enter 'space' to test the AI: Responsive Architecture: The home to come

As artificial intelligence (AI) technology progressively integrates into daily life and domestic environments, it instigates a pressing inquiry: What new spatial implications can arise from the integration of artificially intelligent technologies within homes, and what role can these AI technologies play in reinforcing social interaction among...
