About

Mahboobe Kheirabadi is an emerging researcher specializing in human-robot collaboration (HRC) and assembly line optimization, with a particular focus on the intersection of industrial engineering and next-generation manufacturing paradigms. Her work addresses one of the most pressing challenges in modern production environments: how humans and robots can work together safely, efficiently, and sustainably on the factory floor. Kheirabadi's most influential contribution is her comprehensive review of human-robot collaboration in assembly line balancing problems, which has garnered 41 citations since its 2023 publication, establishing her as a key synthesizer of knowledge in this rapidly evolving field. Building on this foundation, she has advanced the conversation toward safety-driven optimization frameworks for collaborative assembly lines, ensuring that ergonomic and risk considerations are embedded directly into balancing decisions. Her most recent work reflects a forward-thinking alignment with Industry 5.0 principles, introducing an LLM-powered virtual operator advisor that leverages large language models to support real-time decision-making in assembly and disassembly cells. This innovative conceptual framework bridges artificial intelligence and human-centered manufacturing in a novel and timely way. Kheirabadi's growing body of work positions her as a promising voice shaping the future of intelligent, human-centric production systems.
