Safe Algorithm

Safe algorithms aim to design systems that operate reliably and predictably within specified safety constraints, crucial for applications like robotics and human-robot interaction. Current research focuses on developing and improving algorithms like Safe Bayesian Optimization and its variants, reinforcement learning methods with safety constraints (e.g., using constrained policy optimization), and techniques for efficient safety testing and risk assessment, often incorporating Bayesian methods and changepoint detection. These advancements are vital for ensuring the safe deployment of increasingly autonomous systems in real-world environments, improving reliability and mitigating potential risks.
