Motor Adaptive and Cognitive Scaffolding for iCub – MACSi
Personal robots are believed to become a major market product in the near future. They will have to be flexible and adaptive because they will have to perform a wide variety of tasks in unpredictable environments. In this context, programming any reaction to any situation in advance is not a viable option anymore, in contrast with the previous practice in robotics. The alternative is the developmental approach taken in this project, at the sensori-motor root of behaviour learning.

Self-Adaptive Technologies for Upgraded Reconfigurable Neural computing – SATURN
The SATURN project takes place in this context of<br />autonomous embedded systems and proposes to revise the actual fundamentals of embedded computing architectures. We propose in this project an original approach compared to the classical centralised approaches based on new computation paradigms. The SATURN project associates researchers from digital embedded systems and artificial intelligence in order to define this architecture<br />of a new type for smart embedded plateforms.

QUAlity of ServIce for wireless sensor network and Mobile Objects – parameter aDaptatiOn – QUASIMODO
WSN, together with the IoT (Internet Of Things), constitute the key technologies for building CPS. Until now, low-power consumption has been the main focus in WSN research topic. But the problem of how to support real-time and mobility in WSN, which is necessary in CPS, has not been well investigated before our project. Providing QoS under stringent resource constraints and with the highly dynamic behavior of the WSN is a very challenging research topic.
Algorithms for modeling the visual system: From natural vision to numerical applications. – KEOpS
The survey of sensory biological solutions to the physics problems offers an inspiring wealthy source for the design of artificial or bio-inspired sensory systems. A better understanding of sensory coding may have fruitful applications, in the long term for people with low or impaired vision, while enactive vision is targeted in the short term. Furthermore, the whole corpus of produced knowledge is going to help better understanding how the brain works.
Learning And Reasoning for Deciding Optimally using Numerical and Symbolic information – LARDONS
The project aims at designing innovative, fondamental models and methods for enabling autonomous agents (e.g., mobile robots, personal software assistants) to learn and to act using all type of information. We target two specific types of information, namely: numerical information, like statistics or probabilities modelling effectors and sensors, and symbolic information, as typically provided by humans when they specify norms, obligations, constraints, etc.
