Piyabhum Chaysri, Konstantinos Blekas* & Kostas Vlachos Department of Computer Science and Engineering, University of Ioannina, Ioannina, GreecePiyabhum Chaysri received the B.Sc. degree in Computer Science in 2016 and received the M.Sc. degree in Technologies and Applications in 2018, both from the University of Ioannina, Ioannina, Greece. He currently continues his Ph.D. research in Reinforcement Learning Agents in Robotic Applications at the same university. His research interests include machine learning, intelligent agents, reinforcement learning, navigation and control of robotic platforms as well as designing and construction of robotic mechanisms.Konstantinos Blekas received the Diploma degree in Electrical Engineering in 1993 and the Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering in 1997, both from the National Technical University of Athens. He is currently associate professor at the Department of Computer Science & Engineering, University of Ioannina, Greece. He has co-authored more than 90 refereed journal and conference articles. His research interests include machine learning, pattern recognition, intelligent agents and reinforcement learning with applications to robotics and autonomous systems, computer vision, and medicine.Kostas Vlachos received the B.Sc. degree in electrical engineering from the Technical University of Dresden, Dresden, Germany, in 1993. He received from the National Technical University of Athens, Athens, Greece, the M.S. (2000) and Ph.D. (2004) degrees in the area of Automatic Control and Robotics respectively. From 1996 to 1998, he worked as a Software Analyst in INTRACOM S.A. From 2007 to 2013, he was a visiting Lecturer at the Mechanical Engineering Department, University of Thessaly, where he taught courses in the areas of Control Systems, and Robotics. Currently, he is an Assistant Professor with the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, University of Ioannina. Research interests: haptic mechanisms, medical simulation, microrobotics, navigation and control of robotic mechanisms.
