Artur W. Dubrawski

Artur W. Dubrawski is a computer scientist whose machine-learning research applies data analysis to health care and equipment safety. He spent 1995–1996 as a visiting Fulbright scholar at Carnegie Mellon's Robotics Institute, returned to CMU in 2003, and became director of the Auton Lab in 2006. His work includes aerospace failure alerts, Army predictive maintenance, the MOMENT time-series models, autonomous trauma care, robotic vascular access and AI for mineral exploration. As of October 2026, he is an Alumni Research Professor of Computer Science at the Robotics Institute and leads the Auton Lab and GEM-AI.

Timeline

  1. 1995–1996

    Fulbright at Carnegie Mellon

    He spends 1995–1996 as a visiting Fulbright scholar at Carnegie Mellon's Robotics Institute.

  2. 2003–2006

    Returning to direct Auton Lab

    After serving as chief technology officer at Aethon, which builds robots for hospital transport, he returns to CMU in 2003 and joins the Robotics Institute's Auton Lab. By 2006, he holds a Ph.D. in robotics and automation from the Polish Academy of Sciences' Institute of Fundamental Technological Research and an M.Sc. in aircraft engineering from Warsaw University of Technology; in January 2006, he becomes the lab's director.

  3. 2011

    Early warnings in aerospace

    In 2011, he coauthors a paper that adapts mathematics from public-health surveillance to find systematic failures in aerospace components. Its data-driven methods allow maintenance and supply managers to receive earlier warnings about emerging problems and prioritize investigations.

  4. 2021–2022

    A professorship and Army project

    Carnegie Mellon announces in 2021 that he will receive the Alumni Research Professorship of Computer Science. In 2022, he leads a three-year, $10.5 million U.S. Army project to extend predictive-maintenance techniques to ground vehicles and power generators.

  5. 2024

    MOMENT time-series models

    In 2024, he coauthors MOMENT, an open-source family of foundation models for general-purpose time-series analysis.

  6. 2024

    Autonomous trauma care

    In 2024, he leads CMU's role in testing an autonomous trauma-care system. The team's machine-learning algorithm uses an individual's vital signs to personalize treatment during emergency transport.

  7. 2025

    Robotic vascular access

    In 2025, he coauthors a study that reports successful femoral vein and artery cannulation in a porcine hemorrhagic-shock model using robotic ultrasound.

  8. As of October 2026

    Professor and GEM-AI leader

    In July 2026, he leads GEM-AI, an agentic system that combines AI, geology, microbiology and remote sensing to identify critical mineral deposits. As of October 2026, he is an Alumni Research Professor of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon's Robotics Institute and directs the Auton Lab. His research addresses public health, food safety, nuclear safety and equipment health.

From the biography.

  1. More people shaping AI studied at Massachusetts Institute of Technology than at any other institutionIncludes Carnegie Mellon University. We estimate where the people shaping AI studied and where their careers led. Massachusetts Institute of Technology leads with 467 former students, including 291 recorded doctorates.
  2. The company share of AI researchers’ top papers was 31% in 2020–2024 and 8% in 1970–1974Includes Carnegie Mellon University. We estimate where the people shaping AI worked when their most-cited papers appeared: the company share was 31% in 2020–2024 and 8% in 1970–1974, and Google led all organizations in 2020–2024.
  3. Google has the highest combined h-index among AI organizationsIncludes Carnegie Mellon University. We estimate that Google holds the highest combined h-index at 8,016, while universities account for 73% of the deduplicated total across AI organizations.
  4. The median h-index is 48 at universities and 14 at frontier AI labsIncludes Carnegie Mellon University. The median h-index is 48 at universities and 14 at frontier AI labs. We compare publishing careers, recent citations, dual appointments and job moves across 2,420 university researchers and 308 frontier-lab researchers.
