About Paul Robertson
Paul Robertson is the chief scientist and President of DOLL. He has worked on self-adaptive image understanding systems for many years.
He holds a Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Oxford and a BA in Computer Science from the University of Essex.
His current research activities include self-adaptive software architectures
and technology, symbolic learning systems, perceptually enabled interfaces, physically
embedded intelligent autonomous systems (including robots and vision systems), and
advanced programming language environments and design.
His past research accomplishments included work in linguistic models in computer vision,
robotics, and self-adaptive cognitive architectures for interpretation problems, work
in software and AI development environments; and research on AI, self-adaptive software,
adaptive networking, vision, sensor networks, pervasive and perceptually enabled
environments, and information survivability.
He has worked on numerous government-funded research programs, including the
following DARPA programs: Incremental Learning (IL), SRS, ANTS, SAFER, EDCS. He
was PI on SAFER and EDCS contracts. Dr. Robertson was formerly a Senior Scientist at
BBN Technologies was a research scientist at the M.I.T Computer Science and Artificial
Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), a director at Symbolics Inc, Chief Technical Officer of
Artelligence, and an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at the University of Texas at
Dallas.

Researched Artificial Intelligence Assistants
Dr. Robertson’s recent research includes Artificial Intelligence Assistants, robotic assistants, and online developmental machine learning.
Developed DOLL’s CARL System
Robertson developed DOLL’s CARL system, which explicitly connects expectations from a story with the sensed world and, when there is a mismatch, generates a “surprise”
