Doctoral Consortium at the 2020 International Symposium on Experimental Robotics (ISER 2020)

该旅行奖励项目将为15-20名美国学生提供旅行资金，参加2020年11月9日至12日在马耳他举行的2020年实验机器人国际研讨会（ISER），并参加博士联盟。研讨会的特色是受邀和精选的研究报告，重点是通过实验结果验证的机器人研究。这次独特的会议展示了机器人各个领域的最新进展，其中的想法不仅是概念上的构思，而且是实验上的探索。由于强调实验验证，它在国际机器人研究界具有很高的知名度，并且与应用具有很高的相关性。ISER 2020将为学生提供绝佳的机会，让他们了解广泛的机器人研究、开发和应用的最新进展，并与全球机器人社区经验丰富的研究人员和实践者建立联系。如果目前的日程安排不可行，博士联盟研讨会将在2021年3月期间举行。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This travel award project will provide travel funds for 15-20 US-based students to attend the 2020 International Symposium on Experimental Robotics (ISER) in Malta, Nov 9-12, 2020, and participate in the doctoral consortium. The symposium features both invited and selected research presentations that focus on robotics research that has been validated through experimental results. This unique conference presents the latest advances across various fields of robotics, with ideas that are not only conceived conceptually but also explored experimentally. It has a high visibility in the international robotics research community as well as a high relevance to applications due to its emphasis on experimental validation. ISER 2020 will provide excellent opportunities for students to learn about the latest advances across a wide spectrum of robotics research, development, and applications and to network with seasoned researchers and practitioners in the worldwide robotics community. In the case where the current schedule becomes not practical, the Doctoral Consortium Workshop will be held during the March 2021 period.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
