معرفی
Martim Brandão is a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in Robotics and Autonomous Systems at King’s College London, where he leads the Responsible Robotics and AI (RRAI) Lab and serves as Co-Director of the UKRI Centre for Doctoral Training in Safe and Trusted AI. His research focuses on ethical, explainable, and safe AI and robotics, with applications in human-robot interaction, motion planning, fairness, and societal impact.
His research interests include:
- Explainable AI and Motion Planning
- Fairness and Bias in AI Systems
- Human-Robot Interaction and Social Robotics
- Adversarial Robustness in Robotics
- Value Alignment and Ethical AI
- Inclusive and Participatory Robotics Design
His recent publications (2023–2025) reflect a strong trend toward socially responsible robotics, focusing on fairness in navigation, explainability of planning failures, worker-centered agricultural robotics, environmental justice in drone delivery, and the dangers of bias in drowsiness detection and LLM-driven robots. His work emphasizes user understanding, societal impact, and ethical safeguards in autonomous systems.
He has advised and collaborated with numerous students and researchers across diverse topics in robotics and AI.
He is actively involved in shaping responsible robotics through:
- Leadership in the RRAI Lab
- Co-directing a national CDT in Safe and Trusted AI
- Developing fairness-aware algorithms
- Advocating for inclusive and ethical design practices
His lab and research group focus on:
- Responsible Robotics and AI
- Explainability in Multi-Agent Planning
- Fairness in Coverage and Navigation
- Human-Centered Evaluation of AI Systems
