Background:

Dongkyu Choi is a senior scientist at Singapore’s Agency for Science, Technology and Research. His current research focuses on artificial agents that collaborate with human counterparts on physical tasks. Based on his expertise in cognitive architectures, Dongkyu is leading the integration effort that brings together perception, action, dialogue, learning, and commonsense reasoning within a unified framework. He is experienced in designing, managing, and performing funded projects from various government agencies, including Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, Office of Naval Research, Naval Research Laboratory, and Korea Institute of Science and Technology. Previously, Dongkyu was a member of faculty at the University of Kansas and a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Illinois at Chicago. He received his MS and PhD degrees from Stanford University and his BS degree from Seoul National University.

David Menager is a PhD student at the University of Kansas. His research uses computational models of event memory as a core technology for answering research questions about artificial intelligence. His current interest is to understand the role of event memory for explainable AI in single-agent and multi-agent domains. David spent last summer as an intern at Lockheed Martin’s Skunk Works researching machine learning. In his free time, David likes to produce music and go running.
