Responsibilities:
Duties include academic services in the project named above. Research associates can also pur- sue independent research and further academic qualifications.
Specific Duties:
The range of duties in sub-project C06 include the development and evaluation of visual-haptic tele-robotic-systems. The SFB/Transregio 169/1 project aims to initiate interdisciplinary research between computer science, neuroscience, and psychology in Hamburg and Beijing in order to set up a collaborative research centre with focus on human-robot-collaboration, artificial intelligence, neuroscience and psychology while focusing on the topic of cross-modal learning. The long-term challenge is to understand the neural, cognitive and computational evidence of cross-modal learning and to use this understanding for (1) better analyzing human performance with cross-modal correspondence, and (2) building effective cross-modal computational systems.
