We present progress with roBlocks, a reconfigurable modular robotic system for education. Children snap together small, magnetic, heterogeneous modules to create larger, more comp...
Imitation enables the individuals to acquire new abilities, and encourages social interaction and cultural transfer. The capability to obtain new abilities by observation represen...
Structured models often achieve excellent performance but can be slow at test time. We investigate structure compilation, where we replace structure with features, which are often...
A learner's performance does not rely only on the representation language and on the algorithm inducing a hypothesis in this language. Also the way the induced hypothesis is ...
The widespread use of artificial neural networks and the difficult work regarding the correct specification (tuning) of parameters for a given problem are the main aspects that mot...
