A new and first Human+ preprint! Based on Ann’s BSc-thesis we explore domain-specific and domain-general neural network engagement during human-robot interactions.
Read the preprint, explore the data or code. Super proud of this work!
Together with Maartje de Graaf and Zerrin Yumak, Ruud started the Embodied AI initiative in 2020.
The main objective of this project is to unite researchers of Utrecht University and elsewhere in the field of Embodied AI.
We aim to increase visibility, build community and foster interdisciplinary collaborations as well as encourage
diversity and inclusion of perspectives and backgrounds. Thanks to funding from the Human-Centered AI focus area, Geertje will join us as a student assistant.
We have organised three panels and have now started a monthly seminar series. For more information
visit our website or follow us on twitter.
Luca and Ruud are super excited to be part of InScience, the international science festival at Nijmegen.
During InScience we will showcasing two of our latest human-robot interaction experiments. Come and join us and two robots and let’s explore the future of humans and machines together!
Quick teaser:
Join Human+! A 2-years + 1 year optional postdoctoral position on Psychology and Human-Centred Artificial Intelligence is available. The postdoc will work with Ruud, Dr. Baptist Liefooghe and Prof. Henk Aarts on a collaborative research project to understand understanding social cognition during interactions with AI. Read the project and job description here and more info can also be found in the Twitter thread. For more information and informal applications contact Ruud or Baptist before November 9th. You only need to send your CV to us! Looking forward receiving your application.
