About

G. Ayorkor Korsah is a leading researcher in multi-robot systems and artificial intelligence, with a particular focus on task allocation and coordination for heterogeneous teams. Her most influential work is the landmark 2013 paper "A comprehensive taxonomy for multi-robot task allocation," which has garnered over 600 citations and provides a foundational framework for understanding the complexity and features of MRTA problems across diverse domains. Dr. Korsah has made significant contributions to bounded optimal coordination, notably through her work on xBots, an approach that generates and executes optimal multi-robot plans while managing cross-schedule dependencies such as precedence and synchronization constraints. Her 2018 paper further explores these challenges in heterogeneous human-robot teams, addressing applications in emergency assistance, agriculture, construction, and planetary exploration. Beyond her technical contributions, Dr. Korsah is recognized for advancing robotics in Africa, serving as a faculty member at Ashesi University and advocating for inclusive, context-aware AI research. Her work bridges theoretical rigor with real-world impact, inspiring a new generation of roboticists to tackle complex coordination problems.
