Michael Brenner attended Albert-Ludwigs-Universität
in Freiburg, Germany, majoring in
Computer Science (minor subject: Cognitive Psychology)
from 1995 to 1998. In 1998 he enrolled in the DEA de
Sciences Cognitives at LIMSI
in Paris, France, and
obtained a Master's Degree in Cognitive Science in fall 1999. He then
came back to Freiburg, first as a member of the Graduate
Program on Human and Machine Intelligence, then as a university
assistant in
the Artificial
Intelligence Research Group headed by Bernhard
Nebel.
Research Interests
Michael is interested in multiagent systems, AI planning, knowledge
representation and human-computer interaction. His PhD work is about
multiagent planning and plan execution in dynamic environments.
Michael is team leader of ResQ
Freiburg, a multiagent research team
participating in the RoboCup
Rescue Simulation competition, which is part of the
international RoboCup
initiative. In 2004, ResQ Freiburg, then
co-lead by Alexander
Kleiner and Michael Brenner, became world
champion in the Rescue Simulation league.
In the EU-funded project CoSy,
he is working on continual planning techniques in multiagent settings,
and collaborative planning between humans and robots.
Michael was also a member of the IPP
Planning project. In 1997, IPP won the ADL track of the first
international planning systems competition.
Activities
Michael was chair of the
AAAI-02 Workshop on Planning with and for Multiagent
Systems in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada on July 28/29, 2002.
He was coorganizer of the 9th German Autumn
School on Cognitive Science in Freiburg, September 2000.
Michael chaired the Rescue
Simulation League at RoboCup German Open 2005.
He is a member of the Technical Committee of the RoboCup Rescue
Simulation league of RoboCup 2005
in Osaka, Japan.
