First open meeting of the portfolio of projects funded by the EIC Pathfinder Challenge “Awareness Inside“
27 September 2023
The meeting is taking place Oct. 1st, 2023, in Kraków, Poland, during the 26th European Conference on Artificial Intelligence (ECAI 2023).
Publication: Frappe: fast fiducial detection on low-cost hardware
27 September 2023
In this work, EMERGE partners from the University of Bristol introduce an image processing algorithm called Frappe (Fiducial Recognition Accelerated with Parallel Processing Elements) for detecting and decoding the popular ArUco tags.
Workshop “Inside the Ethics of AI Awareness”
12 September 2023
The workshop presents an opportunity for philosophers, computer scientists, roboticists and other experts to contribute to a nuanced understanding of ethical concerns surrounding artificial systems.
Publication: Model-Based Control for Soft Robots With System Uncertainties and Input Saturation
24 August 2023
In this work, EMERGE partners from Delft University of Technology and collaborators propose a robust model-based strategy for the shape control of soft robots with system uncertainty and input saturation.
Publication: A Provably Stable Iterative Learning Controller for Continuum Soft Robots
21 August 2023
In this work, EMERGE partners from Delft University of Technology and collaborators propose a purely feedforward iterative learning control algorithm that refines the torque action by leveraging both the knowledge of the model and data obtained from past experiences.
Publication: Prescribing Cartesian Stiffness of Soft Robots by Co-Optimization of Shape and Segment-Level Stiffness
09 August 2023
In this work, EMERGE partners from Delft University of Technology and collaborators propose a strategy to prescribe variations of the physical stiffness and the robot's posture so to implement a desired Cartesian stiffness and location of the contact point.
Publication: Intelligence brings responsibility - Even smart AI assistants are held responsible
27 July 2023
In this work, EMERGE partners from Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich examined whether purely instrumental AI systems stay clear of responsibility.
Italian Workshop on Explainable Artificial Intelligence
10 July 2023
EMERGE partners from UNIPI are organizing the 4th Italian Workshop on Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI.it 2023) during the 22nd International Conference of the Italian Association for Artificial Intelligence (AIxIA 2023), to be held in Rome, Italy, on November 6th - 9th, 2023.
EMERGE consortium launches first project video
20 June 2023
How do robots in a collective know what the group as a whole is doing? When intelligence is distributed across many parts, it can be tricky for the bigger picture to emerge. Yet answering these questions is key to making collective systems that are easy to design, monitor and control.
