Robot Head Stabilization During Periodic Locomotion Using Adaptive Dynamical Systems

Auke Ijspeert, Sébastien Gay, José Santos-Victor

We present a gaze stabilization system using only visual information as feedback for a self tuning dynamical system. We describe how the dynamical system tunes its internal parameters to those of the optical ﬂow information to generate compensatory command ...

Sound-driven modulation of sub- and suprathreshold activity in mouse primary visual cortex

Diego Ghezzi

Integration of multimodal information is essential for the integrative response of the brain and is thought to be accomplished mostly in sensory association areas. However, available evidences in humans and monkeys indicate that this process begins already ...

View-Based Maps

Pascal Fua, Vincent Lepetit, Michael Calonder

Robotic systems that can create and use visual maps in real-time have obvious advantages in many applications, from automatic driving to mobile manipulation in the home. In this paper we describe a mapping system based on retaining stereo views of the envi ...

Time course of visual information processing in adolescents

Michael Herzog

Visual backward masking is a well suited technique to investigate intact and deficient visual information processing. Whereas visual backward masking has been studied extensively in adult populations, there is only a limited number of investigations in ado ...

Active Vision for Goal-Oriented Humanoid Robot Walking

Dario Floreano, Mototaka Suzuki

Complex visual tasks may be tackled with remarkably simple neural architectures generated by a co-evolutionary process of active vision and feature selection. This hypothesis has recently been tested in several robotic applications such as shape discrimina ...

Real-Time Audio-Visual Calls Detection System for a Chicken Robot

Francesco Mondada, Alexey Gribovskiy

Design, study, and control of mixed animals-robots societies is the field of scientific exploration that can bring new opportunities for study and control of groups of social animals. In the Chicken Robot project we develop a mobile robot, socially accepta ...

Enactive Robot Vision

Dario Floreano, Mototaka Suzuki

Enactivism claims that sensory-motor activity and embodiment are crucial in perceiving the environment and that machine vision could be a much simpler business if considered in this context. However, computational models of enactive vision are very rare an ...

An Exploration of Online Parallel Learning in Heterogeneous Multi-Robot Swarms

Alcherio Martinoli, James Pugh

Designing effective behavioral controllers for mobile robots can be difficult and tedious; this process can be circumvented by using unsupervised learning techniques which allow robots to evolve their own controllers online in an automated fashion. In mult ...

Enactive robot vision

Mototaka Suzuki

The complexity of today's autonomous robots poses a major challenge for Artificial Intelligence. These robots are equipped with sophisticated sensors and mechanical abilities that allow them to enter our homes and interact with humans. For example, today's ...
