Speech Localization and Recognition for Humanoid Robotics

Robots and other autonomous machines currently have limited sound awareness and speech recognition capabilities, which limits their ability to interact with humans. Applying insights from cognitive neuroscience provides novel ways to improve these interactions. The primary objective of this proposal is to implement an auditory AI for robotics that finds human talkers in the environment […]

Decoupling of the structural connectome in the elderly

In 2010, approximately 35.6 million people suffered from dementia around the world and the number is expected to double every 20 years. These alarming predictions call for a better understanding of the mechanisms underpinning cognitive decline in aging. One of the key cardiovascular risk factors for cognitive decline is arterial stiffening. My project involves the […]
