Abstract
In recent years, breakthroughs in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics led to tremendous successes in various application areas. In this talk we try to cover three separate topics underpinned by the same theoretical research on information architecture of multiagent systems. We will present samples of its applications in multi-robot formation control, cooperative sensing, robotic arms in a lab, and more recently, multi-omics data platform. Finally, we will sketch a research plan of how to improve some fundamental aspects in life science and health studies through advancing cross disciplinary technologies including AI and robotics.
