Technische Universitat Darmstadt, Intelligent Autonomous Systems lab

Darmstadt, Germany

Name : Pr. Jan Peters, Dr. Georgia Chalvatzaki

Project : Chiron

Description : The Intelligent Autonomous Systems (IAS) institute of Technische Universität Darmstadt (TUDA) is considered one of the
strongest robot learning groups in Europe with expertise ranging from the development of novel machine learning methods (e.g. novel
reinforcement learning approaches, policy search, imitation learning, regression approaches, etc.) over semi-autonomy of intelligent
systems (e.g. shared control, interaction primitives, human-collaboration during manufacturing) to fully autonomous robotics (e.g.
robot learning architectures, motor skill representation acquisition & refinement, grasping, manipulation, tactile sensing, nonlinear
control, operational space control, robot table tennis, legged locomotion) and to the design of biomimetic motor control systems and
brain-robot interfaces. IAS members are well-known researchers in two major areas of AI, i.e., both in the machine learning and the
robotics community.

Nagoya University

Nagoya, Japan

Name : Pr. Yasuhisa Hasegawa

Project : Chiron

Description : The NU group focuses on fundamental and applied studies of robotics and AI technologies for advanced human assistance
and augmentation. Such intelligent human-centered technologies have recently been developed as understanding human
neuroscience composed of motor control, learning, and adaptation as well as robotic and informatic progress. Our research
contributes toward the human-computer cooperative system expected to be a solution to social problems caused by the aging
population. Based on robotic and AI approaches, we address to develop intuitive user interfaces, efficient wearable/non-wearable
assistive robots, and embodied teleoperation systems from the viewpoints of human science composed of physiology,
neurophysiology, biomechanics, and kinesiology. We aim to improve the physical capability of everyone regardless of their
functionality and to reconstruct human welfare society by utilizing and developing our technologies.
