Colaborative Research Center 1320: Everyday activity science and engeineering
Description
- This project "Sensorimotor and Causal Human Activity Models for Cognitive Architectures" is part of a DFG funded collaborative research centre at the University of Bremen.
The goal is to identify and model the causal structures and relations that underlie context-sensitive sensorimotor adaptation. To achieve this goal, we will investigate sensorimotor behavior in natural settings where the context determines the planning, adaptation and execution of the task. As a result we will develop suitable Causal Sensory-Motor Models (CSMMs) which are based on causal probabilistic graphs. CSMMs will model the execution of everyday tasks in a household context and will serve as a basis for the planning, execution, and prediction of arm and hand movements, and, on a higher level, action sequences. The structural dependencies and the functional relations incorporated in the CSMMs will facilitate learning and improve generalizability.
