Study of cognitive abilities in humans and animals:

The ACIDE team is interested in embedded action, cognition, interaction and decision: the behavior of agents (living or artificial) is considered in the context of a dynamic environment including other agents. Through experimentation and modeling, it studies the cognitive capacities of humans and animals. It is also involved in the design of more adapted, transparent and personalized human-machine interaction devices.

Scientific problems

Study of cognitive abilities in humans and animals:

– Perception, social interaction, decision-making and learning;

– Normal and pathological situations;

– Individual and collective scale;

– Synthesis of these cognitive abilities (AI).

Designing human-machine interaction devices :

– More adapted, transparent, personalized;

– Machines: computers, conversational agents, virtual reality systems, robots;

– Contexts: emotional modulations, multimodal interactions, community of practice, home use, e-health.
