Publication: Human cooperation with artificial agents varies across countries.
22 April 2025
In this work, EMERGE partners from the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich examined people’s willingness to cooperate with artificial agents and humans in two classic economic games requiring a choice between self-interest and mutual benefit.
Sabine Hauert at The Royal Institution.
26 March 2025
EMERGE partner was a recent lecturer at RI, where she explained how recent developments in robotics and AI can revolutionise our lives, and why swarm systems can be trusted.
Publication: A memristive computational neural network model for time-series processing
20 March 2025
In this work, EMERGE partners from the University of Pisa introduce a novel computational framework inspired by the physics of memristive devices and systems, which are embed into the context of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) for time-series processing.
Publication: Synergy-based robotic quadruped leveraging passivity for natural intelligence and behavioural diversity
17 March 2025
In this work, EMERGE partners from the Delft University of Technology develop PAWS, passive automata with synergies, a legged system with synergistic actuation that uses four actuators to control its 12 degrees of freedom.
Publication: NiSNN-A: Noniterative Spiking Neural Network With Attention With Application to Motor Imagery EEG Classification
14 March 2025
In this work, EMERGE partners from the Delft University of Technology combine the SNN and the attention mechanisms for the EEG classification, aiming to improve precision and reduce energy consumption.
Publication: Singular-Perturbation Control of a Tendon-Driven Soft Robot: Theory and Experiments
11 March 2025
In this work, EMERGE partners from the Delft University of Technology analyze the influence of the actuation dynamics in tendon-driven continuum soft robots performing trajectory-tracking tasks.
Publication: Random Orthogonal Additive Filters: A Solution to the Vanishing/Exploding Gradient of Deep Neural Networks
26 February 2025
In this work, EMERGE partners from the University of Pisa propose a method that permits to solve the V/E gradient issue of deep learning models trained via stochastic gradient descent (SGD) methods.
Publication: On the ethical governance of swarm robotic systems in the real world
30 January 2025
In this work, EMERGE partners from the University of Bristol address the question: what practices would be required for the responsible design and operation of real-world swarm robotic systems?
Exploring the Ethical Frontiers of Aware Artificial Intelligence: EU Researchers Convene in Uppsala
20 January 2025
Event organised by the European Innovation Council (EIC) funded projects in the “Awareness Inside” portfolio discusses the ethical implications of designing aware artificial intelligent systems.
