2011 IEEE-RAS International Conference on Humanoid Robots Humanoids 2011

Research interests

My research life is split between the ATR Computational Neuroscience Laboratories in Kyoto, Japan, and the Department of Automatics, Biocybernetics and Robotics, Jozef Stefan Institute, Ljubljana, Slovenia. I am interested in applying the results from human motor control and perception to the creation of humanlike agents. Much of my recent research has been centered on imitation learning, where the goal is to generalize the available action knowledge to new situations. I am also interested in humanoid robot vision with a focus on learning object representations, object recognition, and foveated vision. Finally, I study mechanisms to integrate active perception of objects and actions with robot learning.
