Abstract:
Cet exposé a pour cadre les robots et systèmes ambiants d’assistance. Il passe en revue les challenges liés à ce domaine de recherche très porteur et s’appuie sur les travaux de recherche développés au sein de l'équipe SIRIUS du laboratoire LISSI de l’UPEC. Ces travaux visent le développement, la modélisation et le contrôle-commande de systèmes intelligents ambiants et robotiques pour l’assistance aux personnes dépendantes (personnes âgées, patients). Deux formes d’assistance aux activités quotidiennes sont étudiées: l’assistance physique (assistance à la mobilité ou au déplacement) à travers le concept de capteurs et robots portables, et l’assistance cognitive via des systèmes robotiques en réseau (agents intelligents, agents incarnés et robots compagnons) autour des concepts de la robotique ubiquitaire et de l’intelligence ambiante. Pour ces deux formes, des fonctions d’observation de haut niveau sont nécessaires pour la reconnaissance du contexte de l’utilisateur (son intention, ses activités, sa localisation, etc.). Ces fonctions sont ensuite exploitées pour adapter les fonctions d’assistance. Les travaux menés se déclinent en trois thèmes principaux: Reconnaissance d’activités , Assistance physique et Assistance cognitive.
Biography:
Yacine Amirat received the Ph.D. degree in computer science and robotics from the University of Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris, France, in 1989, and the Habilitation degree in artificial intelligence and control of complex systems from the University of Paris 12-France, Paris, in 1996. He co-created the Laboratory of Computer Sciences and Robotics, Paris 12 University (newly UPEC), Créteil, France, in 1990. He is currently the Director of the Laboratory of Image, Signal and Intelligent Systems (LISSI) – UPEC, and the Scientific Director of several research projects. He has authored or co-authored more than 100 papers in scientific journals, books, and conference proceedings. His current research interests include artificial intelligence, soft computing, knowledge processing, and control of complex systems. Application fields are intelligent and robotic systems such as ubiquitous and service robots, wearable robots, and ambient intelligence. Prof. Amirat is a reviewer of many international journals and conférences and a Technical Committee Member, the Session Chair, a Session Organizer, or an Associate Editor of several IEEE-RAS conferences. He is actively collaborating with industrial and academic partners in various European projects.
