Leslie P. Kaelbling - Wikipedia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

American roboticist

Leslie Pack Kaelbling is an American roboticist and the Panasonic Professor of Computer Science and Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.^[1] She is widely recognized for adapting partially observable Markov decision processes from operations research for application in artificial intelligence and robotics.^[2][3][4] Kaelbling received the IJCAI Computers and Thought Award in 1997 for applying reinforcement learning to embedded control systems and developing programming tools for robot navigation.^[5] In 2000, she was elected as a Fellow of the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence.^[6]

Kaelbling received an A. B. in Philosophy in 1983 and a Ph.D. in Computer Science in 1990, both from Stanford University.^[7] During this time she was also affiliated with the Center for the Study of Language and Information.^[8] She then worked at SRI International and the affiliated robotics spin-off Teleos Research before joining the faculty at Brown University. She left Brown in 1999 to join the faculty at MIT.^[9] Her research focuses on decision-making under uncertainty, machine learning, and sensing with applications to robotics.^[7]

In the spring of 2000, she and two-thirds of the editorial board of the Kluwer-owned journal Machine Learning resigned in protest to its pay-to-access archives with simultaneously limited financial compensation for authors.^[10] Kaelbling co-founded and served as the first editor-in-chief of the Journal of Machine Learning Research, a peer-reviewed open access journal on the same topics which allows researchers to publish articles for free and retain copyright with its archives freely available online.^[11] In response to the mass resignation, Kluwer changed their publishing policy to allow authors to self-archive their papers online after peer-review. Kaelbling responded that this policy was reasonable and would have made the creation of an alternative journal unnecessary, but the editorial board members had made it clear they wanted such a policy and it was only after the threat of resignations and the actual founding of JMLR that the publishing policy finally changed.^[12]
