About
Dr. Alexandra L. Georgescu is a leading researcher at the intersection of social robotics, human-robot interaction, and computational modelling of nonverbal communication. Her work focuses on how robots can learn to interpret and replicate the complex multimodal signals—such as gaze, gesture, and posture—that humans naturally use during social exchanges. Her most cited paper, "A Multimodal Dataset for Robot Learning to Imitate Social Human-Human Interaction" (2023), provides a foundational resource for training robots to recognize and mimic these subtle cues, bridging the gap between human social behaviour and autonomous robotic systems. With 9 citations in a short time, this dataset is already shaping how researchers approach imitation learning in social contexts. Dr. Georgescu’s contributions are pivotal for developing more intuitive, responsive robots that can engage in naturalistic human interaction, with potential applications in assistive technology, therapy, and collaborative robotics. Her work stands out for its emphasis on data-driven, ecologically valid models of social behaviour, making her a key figure in advancing socially intelligent machines.
