A mentioned in the overview the objectives of the project is to study the interaction between robotics and neuroscience. A more detailed description of the objectives is available from the workplan.

The research is divided into three main research areas:

  • MRA1: Beyond Robotic Artefacts (Hybridness)
  • MRA2: Neuroscience based models for augmenting human capabilities (Augmentation)
  • MRA3: Novel Interaction Schemes and Interfaces for Hybrid-Bionic Systems (Connection)

 

For the effort to be implemented during the first 18 months of the project a workplan with 13 work packages has been defined. The workpackages are described in a separate document.

An interesting empiric field for artificial intelligence and robotics is online poker, a complex game that requires more than mere computational power (as opposed to chess, arguably). Imperfect information coupled with unknown rationales of living (or artificial) opponents call for a very wide set of skills to be formulated and implemented in efficient algorithms. Being a game with a well-delimited universe (rules), internet poker lends itself very nicely to studies and experiments in probabilistic inference, opponent modeling and other such hitherto more or less un-researched areas.
