I am a CR2 researcher in INRIA Nancy Grand-Est (France), working in the project-team LARSEN, directed by Francois Charpillet.
I am also affiliated with the Intelligent Autonomous Systems Lab of TU Darmstadt (Germany), directed by Jan Peters.
My research is at the intersection of humanoid robotics and human-robot interaction: my focus is on robots interacting physically and socially with humans, blending learning, perception and control. The goal of my research is to bring the robots closer to humans, taking into account their feedback into the robot learning and control processes. I am particularly interested in interactions between the robot and potential end-users, not accustomed with robots.
