One day, all machine learning will be on factor graphs, not the nasty directed neural networks that are popular at the moment. #FactorisedComputation

📢 We are pleased to share our invited speakers for ANTS 2026 (https://t.co/4p1R6QcGdR)!
Their talks reflect the breadth of the conference — from swarm robotics, networked systems, and collective dynamics to AI, ethics, materials, and planetary futures.
When did "SLAM" show up, and where is it now? 🔍
I vibely built RoboPaper Atlas to see the field evolve.
71,000+ robotics papers from ICRA, IROS, RA-L, T-RO, and RSS (1984 ~ 2025), turned into live visualizations

@HMRCcustomers I filed my 23-24 return with @taxcalc (30 Jan „Submission finished successfully“). While it did not show, 03002003310 stated I submitted on time and should not worry! Yet I am asked late penalties of £100+£830. You processed my 30 Jan return, so how can it be late?
This is insane. It makes my blood boil. It’s so ridiculous, so petty, so small minded. Truly, what is this about? It’s always about something. ‘Let’s get rid of the Rose Garden. Let’s rename the Kennedy Center.’ What’s next?
🎉Our paper "Context-Aware Deep Lagrangian Networks for MPC" was accepted at #IROS2025!
We present CaDeLaC: adaptive physics-consistent robot control via online SysID + MPC.

I am deeply honored and grateful to receive the Alfried Krupp Prize, and incredibly proud to bring this prestigious recognition to Technische Universität Darmstadt for the first time.
This award is not only a personal milestone but also a meaningful endorsement of the research we are pursuing in robot perception and learning, toward more structured, intelligent, and embodied robot assistants.
It comes at a pivotal time, as we launch our ERC Starting Grant SIREN research, and it offers crucial support to advance our vision: enabling robots to perceive, reason, and act in complex human environments.
A heartfelt thank you to the Krupp Foundation for this generous support, to TU Darmstadt and https://t.co/UVSYUCrjBk, and to my mentors, collaborators, and brilliant team at PEARL who make this journey so rewarding.
I’m especially excited to use this opportunity to grow our research team, and to continue pushing the boundaries of embodied AI together.
