Unravelling socio-motor biomarkers in schizophrenia

Aude Billard, Mahdi Khoramshahi, Laura Bénédicte Marine Cohen

We present novel, low-cost and non-invasive potential diagnostic biomarkers of schizophrenia. They are based on the 'mirrorgame', a coordination task in which two partners are asked to mimic each other's hand movements. In particular, we use the patient's ...

Effects of Facial Emotions on Social-motor Coordination in Schizophrenia

Aude Billard, Mahdi Khoramshahi, Laura Bénédicte Marine Cohen

Schizophrenia patients are known to be impaired in their ability to process social information and to engage in social interactions. To understand better social cognition in schizophrenia, we investigate the links between these impairments. In this paper, ...

The Making of a 3D-Printed, Cable-Driven, Single-Model, Lightweight Humanoid Robotic Hand

Daniel Thalmann

Dexterity robotic hands can (Cummings, 1996) greatly enhance the functionality of humanoid robots, but the making of such hands with not only human-like appearance but also the capability of performing the natural movement of social robots is a challenging ...

Model predictive control based framework for CoM control of a quadruped robot

Auke Ijspeert, Kamilo Andres Melo Becerra, Tomislav Horvat

Model Predictive Control is becoming more and more present in robotic applications. It has been successfully used in control of humanoid robots to adjust positions of the footsteps in order to satisfy stability constraints. In this paper we show how to ada ...

Influence of Facial Feedback and Mind Perception During a Cooperative Human-Robot Task in Schizophrenia

Aude Billard, Mahdi Khoramshahi, Laura Bénédicte Marine Cohen

Rapid progress in the area of humanoid robots offers tremendous possibilities for investigating and improving social competences in people with social deficits, but remains yet unexplored in schizophrenia. In this study, we examined the influence of social ...

Rich and Robust Bio-Inspired Locomotion Control for Humanoid Robots

Nicolas Benoît Dominique Van der Noot

Bipedal locomotion is a challenging task in the sense that it requires to maintain dynamic balance while steering the gait in potentially complex environments. Yet, humans usually manage to move without any apparent difficulty, even on rough terrains. This ...

A virtual tactile sensing suit for humanoids based on dynamic equations and internal sensors

Auke Ijspeert, Salman Faraji

In this article, we propose a multi-staged algorithm to detect the magnitude, direction and location of a single external force applied to a humanoid robot while performing dynamic tasks. We use contact force and joint torque sensors as well as IMU to esti ...

Bio-inspired balance controller for a humanoid robot

Auke Ijspeert, Renaud Ronsse, Nicolas Benoît Dominique Van der Noot, François André Heremans

Humanoid robots are gaining much interest nowadays. This is partly motivated by the ability of such robots to replace humans in dangerous environments being specifically designed for humans, such as man-made or natural disaster scenarios. However, existing ...

Humanoid robots versus humans: how is emotional valence of facial expressions recognized by individuals with schizophrenia? An exploratory study

Aude Billard, Mahdi Khoramshahi

Abstract: Background: The use of humanoid robots to play a therapeutic role in helping individuals with social disorders such as autism is a newly emerging field, but remains unexplored in schizophrenia. As the ability for robots to convey emotion appear o ...

Adaptation and coaching of periodic motion primitives through physical and visual interaction

Tadej Petric

In this paper we propose and evaluate a control system to (1) learn and (2) adapt robot motion for continuous non-rigid contact with the environment. We present the approach in the context of wiping surfaces with robots. Our approach is based on learning b ...
