Mary Southern

I am a graduate student in Computer Science at the University of Minnesota. My research interest is robotic search and rescue, specifically using decision theory to develop realistic simulation of disaster scenarios. I am currently working on extending the RoboCup Rescue Simulator with agents who have more complex desires and intentions.

Previously I studied Mathematics, with a particular interest in Algebra.

When not busy with school I enjoy weaving and snowboarding. I also enjoy travelling, and have already been lucky enough to have visited Germany, Mexico, Japan, and the UK.
