The DAAD-funded CASY Project invites applications for several
PhD studentships in the area of Cognitive Assistive Systems.

The programme “Cognitive Assistive Systems (CASY)” will contribute to the
focus on a next generation of human-centred systems for human-robot
collaboration. A central need of these systems is a high level of 
robustness,
learning,  and increased adaptivity to be able to act more natural under
uncertain conditions. To address this need, research will focus on neural
robotics, cognitively  motivated multi-modal integration and learning
human-robot interaction. Different modalities from sensors and processed
representational modalities will be combined and evaluated for their use in
assistive systems based on symbolic, statistical, neural or hybrid
approaches.
