PhD Research Fellow in Psychology-Inspired Computing for Robot Assistants

The goal of the position is to create prediction methods for proactive planning of future robot actions and to design robot acting mechanisms for adaptive response ranging from quick and intuitive to slower well-reasoned. We combine sensing across multiple modalities with learned knowledge to predict outcomes and choose the best actions. The goal is to transfer these skills to human-robot interaction in home scenarios, including the support of everyday tasks and physical rehabilitation. Thus, it is relevant to work with implementation and research within robot perception and control for the robot tasks. User studies through human-robot interaction experiments are to be performed. Several PhD fellows  are already hired for the project and will complement in performing the above outlined research.

The positions are a part of the research project Predictive and Intuitive Robot companion (PIRC) which is affiliated with RITMO Centre for Interdisciplinary Studies in Rhythm, Time and Motion

One or two PhD and one or two Senior Researcher positions in Psychology-Inspired Computing for Robot Assistants

The goal of the positions is to create prediction methods for proactive planning of future robot actions and to design robot acting mechanisms for adaptive response ranging from quick and intuitive to slower well-reasoned. We combine sensing across multiple modalities with learned knowledge to predict outcomes and choose the best actions. The goal is to transfer these skills to intelligent systems in human-robot interactive scenarios to be supporting people in their own homes. This is with regard to everyday tasks and support in physical rehabilitation. Thus, it is relevant to work with implementation and research within robot perception and control for the robot tasks. In addition, user studies through human robot interaction experiments are to be performed. Three people (PhD fellows and researchers) are to be hired for the project and will complement in performing the above outlined research.
