Satinder Singh Baveja

Professor of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Michigan
Director of the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory

Satinder Singh Baveja is a Professor in the Division of Computer Science and Engineering, Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, as well as Director of the AI Lab there. His main research interest is in the old-fashioned goal of Artificial Intelligence (AI), that of building autonomous agents that can learn to be broadly competent in complex, dynamic, and uncertain environments. The field of reinforcement learning (RL) has focused on this goal and accordingly his deepest contributions are in RL. From time to time, he takes seriously the challenge of building agents that can interact with other agents and even humans in both artificial and natural environments. This has led to research in computational game theory / mechanism design, cognitive science, and human-computer interaction.
