Paper Everyday💡 Ever watched your assistive robot ask endless questions as it tries to feed someone? This #ICRA #ICRA2025-accepted work introduces LinUCB-QG, a human-in-the-loop contextual bandit that smartly decides when to ask users for help by leveraging a learned model of query-induced cognitive workload . By predicting the mental effort of each query, the robot balances asking for guidance versus autonomous action, leading to a 26 percent higher bite success rate and a 47 percent reduction in user workload compared to always-query baselines. Their real-world study—conducted with participants both with and without mobility limitations—demonstrates LinUCB-QG’s ability to adapt to individual needs and outperform fully autonomous approaches 🚀 #robotic #TopConference #EureXaAI #BNBChain arxiv.org/abs/2405.06908

Toch knap hoe Sjaak Bral weer ieder jaar een topconference neerzet!

GoPhotonics is proud to be a supporting Media Partner for Telecommunications, Optics & Photonics Conference 2025 Find out more here: ow.ly/CuQI50TT41n #TOPConference #2025 #NexusMediaCommunications #telecommunications #photonics #conference #Insights #EVENT #INDUSTRY

Several presentations at #TOPConference 2024 centered on going beyond the Shannon limit and the software operations of multi-vendor DWDM networks. Learn more about these and other hot topics at the event from Paul Momtahan on the Infinera blog: infinera.com/blog/key-insigh…

At #TOPConference 2024, a keynote by Infinera’s Harald Bock looked at the achievement of increasing fiber capacity by ~30% every year since 2000 and what’s next for optical innovation. Paul Momtahan shares key insights from this and other presentations: infinera.com/blog/key-insigh…

Hot topics at #TOPConference 2024 included quantum security, free-space optics, network planning, amplifiers and lasers, and the UK’s role in the optical ecosystem. On the Infinera blog, Paul Momtahan shares key insights on from the event: infinera.com/blog/key-insigh… @TopConference_

TOP Conference where the UKTIN panel is on stage #topconference

Looking forward to the UKTIN panel session ⬇️ #TOPConference

@ForysiakWladek officially started the #topconference. Intense discussions and interesting talks are coming! #telecom #optics #photonics #optica #spie

Dit was juist een topconference. Nu heb jevook de dansende Lientje gemist.

Fabulous to catch up with loads of friends and contacts @MASCIPofficial with the added bonus of hearing all the latest SCI news - the networking is as valuable as the presentations @JMWInYourCorner #TopConference

Misschien eens aandacht besteden aan een 'kind van de club', die in de USA een college-switch gaat maken naar een topconference, de BTN. Daar zal hij worden gecoacht door de ex-coach van de Chicago Bulls. Oh ja, zijn broer staat regelmatig bij Donar 1 op het roster.
