Advanced Adaptive Intelligent Systems

This project is focused on the development of socially assistive robots in people’s homes, education or health-care settings, as well as robots working alongside workers in small-scale manufacturing environments. The proposed project can be seen as an example of Human-centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI) or Intelligence Augmentation (IA). The aim is to develop adaptive social robots that can understand humans’ communicative behaviour and task-related physical actions, and adapt their interaction to suit. We aim to investigate and demonstrate fluid and seamless adaptation of intelligent systems to users’ context, needs or preferences.
