Research in Computer Science

The departmental 1994 Research Report

The research report is online and the structure of research organisation is glibly captures in a Venn Diagram - this is not strictly correct at all and is only provided to give a very rough characterisation of the areas we work in.

Communications, Multimedia and Distributed Systems

Research in commnications has been conducted here as long as the department has existed. The group was once known as INDRA after the Hindu god who is represented as a web, with jewels at each nexus. When a jewel glows, a soul has reached enlightenment.

Information Systems Research Group

This research group has wide ranging interests stretching from parallel, object-oriented and functional systems through to the philosophical and cognitive issues in analysis and design.

Genetic Programming

VR and Graphics

Artificial Intelligence

Planning, Agent Modelling, and Robotics: The agents research group represents a broad range of AI research in reasoning and autonomous systems. The research includes the development of formal bases for reasoning and planning, aquisition of symbolic representations, goal generation and management, autonomous communication, adaptive control, robotics and vision.
Intelligent Systems Group: The Intelligent Systems Group at UCL specialises in applied research in neural networks, evolutionary techniques, fuzzy logic and hybrid systems with `traditional' symbolic AI. The emphasis is on research in collaboration with business and industry, through real-world problem solving.
