The UT Austin Villa 2003 simulated online soccer coach was a first time entry in the RoboCup Coach Competition. In developing the coach, the main research focus was placed on treating advice-giving as a learning problem. The coach learns to predict agent behavior from past observations and automatically generates advice to improve its team’s performance. Using this approach, the UT Austin Villa...

Over the last few decades, Anzali wetland has been at risk of pollutants, especially from heavy metals. The present research analyzes some physical and chemical properties and heavy metals concentration in 27 points in nine stations of Anzali wetland. The samples of each station have been mixed, acidic digested, and analyzed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The mean con...

The UT Austin Villa 2003 simulated online soccer coach was a first time entry in the RoboCup Coach Competition. In developing the coach, the main research focus was placed on treating advice-giving as a machine learning problem. Competing against a field of mostly handcoded coaches, the UT Austin Villa coach earned first place in the competition. In this paper, we present the multi-faceted lear...

UT Austin Villa@Home is composed of faculty, post-docs and students across multiple laboratories at the University of Texas at Austin. Collectively, our research spans artificial intelligence, machine learning, natural language, control, and human-robot interaction. Austin Villa@Home has taken part in RoboCup@Home twice, in 2007 and 2017, where we were awarded second and third place, respective...
