Intentional machines: A defence of trust in medical artificial intelligence
Trust constitutes a fundamental strategy to deal with risks and uncertainty in complex societies. In line with the vast literature stressing the importance of trust in doctor–patient relationships, trust is therefore regularly suggested as a way of dealing ...
2022Building perception block by block: a response to Fekete et al.
Michael Herzog, Frank Scharnowski, Adrien Christophe Doerig
Is consciousness a continuous stream, or do percepts occur only at certain moments of time? This age-old question is still under debate. Both positions face difficult problems, which we proposed to overcome with a 2-stage model, where unconscious processin ...
Oxford University Press (OUP)2019From human-intention recognition to compliant control using dynamical systems in physical human-robot interaction
Human ability to coordinate one's actions with other individuals to perform a task together is fascinating. For example, we coordinate our action with others when we carry a heavy object or when we construct a piece of furniture. Capabilities such as (1) f ...
EPFL2019Ordering Events Based on Intentionality in Cyber-Physical Systems
Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Simon Bliudze, Wajeb Saab
We consider cyber-physical systems (CPSs) comprising a central controller that might be replicated for high-reliability, and one or more process agents. The controller receives measurements from process agents, causing it to compute and issue setpoints tha ...
2018Reliability Mechanisms for Controllers in Real-Time Cyber-Physical Systems
Cyber-physical systems (CPSs) are real-world processes that are controlled by computer algorithms. We consider CPSs where a centralized, software-based controller maintains the process in a desired state by exchanging measurements and setpoints with proces ...
EPFL2018(Architecture's) power and the (Arnhem) panopticon: from Foucault's description to Koolhaas' appropriation and reply
André Patrão Neves De Frias Martins
There is an abundance of cases – architectural and philosophical, and especially post-modern; by academics, practitioners, and critics – in which a relation between architecture and philosophy is at work, with one engaging the other directly, or simply in ...

2017Aesthetic Space
Recent 'turns' in social sciences, namely the visual, qualitative, actorial or spatial turns, all indicate a rising interest in individuals. Since the aesthetic dimension always nourishes and informs individualsâ spatialities and their decision-making pr ...
EPFL2017Nowhere and Everywhere: The Causal Origin of Voluntary Action
The idea that intentions make the difference between voluntary and non-voluntary behaviors is simple and intuitive. At the same time, we lack an understanding of how voluntary actions actually come about, and the unquestioned appeal to intentions as discre ...
Springer2015L'habitant et la cohabitation dans les modèles de l'espace habité
The notion of habiter (inhabiting in both a transitive and intransitive sense), developed in the course of the second half of the 20th century, made it possible to place the human individual in the center of spatial theories. Of phenomenological inspiratio ...
