Current Research
# Embodied, interactivist - constructivist approaches to knowledge representation, based on spiking neural networks: extracting structure out of the sensorimotor flux

# Cognitive robotics / neurobotics

# Spiking neural networks, far-from-equilibrium neural systems
Research Objectives
I am interesting in general principles for learning and cognitive development in embodied intelligent agents; how representations (meaning) emerge from the interactions of agents with the environment; how learning, development, memory, categorisation can be modeled with artificial neural networks.
Research Keywords
