EU-financed Projects

Bielefeld-coordinated Projects in FP 7

AMARSi - Adaptive Modular Architectures for Rich Motor Skills
CP-IP in FP 7, coordination: Prof. Dr. Jochen Steil, 03/2010-02/2014
Motor skills of humans and animals are still utterly astonishing when compared to robots. AMARSi aims at a qualitative jump in robotic motor skills towards biological richness.

EMICAB - Embodied Motion Intelligence for Cognitive, Autonomous Robots
CP-FP in FP 7, coordination: Prof. Dr. Volker Dürr, 02/2011-01/2014
The EMICAB consortium takes a holistic approach to the engineering of artificial cognitive systems. Our goal is to integrate smart body mechanics in intelligent planning and control of motor behaviour.

Externally-coordinated Projects in FP 7 with Bielefeld participation

HUMAVIPS - Humanoids with auditory and visual abilities in populated spaces
CP-FP in FP 7, project partner: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Gerhard Sagerer, Dr.-Ing. Britta Wrede and Dr.-Ing. Sebastian Wrede 02/2010-01/2013
The objective of HUMAVIPS is to endow humanoid robots with audiovisual (AV) abilities: exploration, recognition, and interaction, such that they exhibit adequate behavior when dealing with a group of people.

iTalk - Integration and Transfer of Action and Language Knowledge in Robots
CP-IP in FP 7, project partner: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Gerhard Sagerer, Dr.-Ing. Britta Wrede and PD Dr. Katharina Rohlfing, 03/2008-02/2012
The ITALK project aims to develop artificial embodied agents able to acquire complex behavioural, cognitive, and linguistic skills through individual and social learning.

JAMES - Joint Action for Multimodal Embodied Social Systems
CP-FP in FP 7, project partner: Prof. Dr. Jan de Ruiter, 02/2011-01/2014
JAMES is a three year project that aims to develop an embodied artificial agent that supports socially appropriate, multi-party, multimodal interaction.

MONARCA - Monitoring, treatment, and prediction of bipolar disorder episodes
CP-FP in FP 7, project partner: Prof. Dr. Helge Ritter and Dr. Thomas Hermann, 02/2010-01/2013
MONARCA will develop and validate solutions for multi-parametric, long term monitoring of behavioural and physiological information relevant to bipolar disorder.

MONNET - Multilingual Ontologies for Networked Knowledge
CP-FP in FP 7, project partner: Prof. Dr. Philipp Cimiano, 03/2010-02/2013
How can we provide general access to non-native speakers who require government or business information services? The Monnet project offers a solution to this cross-language information access problem by using a novel combination of Machine Translation and Semantic Web Technology.

OpenAIRE - Open Access Infrastructure for Research in Europe
CPCSA in FP 7, project partner: Prof. Dr. Philipp Cimiano and Dr. Wolfram Horstmann, 12/2009-11/2012
OpenAIRE aims to support the implementation of Open Access in Europe. It provides the means to promote and realize the widespread adoption of the Open Access Policy, as set out by the ERC Scientific Council Guidelines for Open Access and the Open Access pilot launched by the European Commission.

RobotDoc - Robotics for Development of Cognition
ITN in FP 7, project partner: PD Dr. Katharina Rohlfing, Dr.-Ing. Britta Wrede, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Stefan Kopp, and Dr.-Ing. Marko Tscherepanow, 09/2009-09/2013
The RobotDoC Collegium is a multi-national doctoral training network for the interdisciplinary training on developmental cognitive robotics. 

THE - The Hand Embodied
CP in FP 7, project partner: Prof. Dr. Marc O. Ernst 04/2010-03/2014

AESOP - ArchitecturE for Service-Oriented Process - Monitoring and Control
CP in FP 7, project partner: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Günther Starke, APS Mechatronik 09/2010-02/2013
AESOP will investigate a Service-oriented Architecture approach for monitoring and control of Process Control applications (batch and continuous process).

Externally-coordinated Projects in FP 6 with Bielefeld participation

EYEWITMEM - The Assessment of Eyewitness Memory
STREP in FP 6, project partner: Prof. Dr. Hans Markowitsch, 01/2007-06/2010
The project dealt with the intricate problem of measuring the accuracy of human memory which becomes particularly prominent when eye witness testimony needs to be evaluated at court.

NEMO - Network Models, Governance and R&D collaboration networks
STREP in FP 6, project partner: Prof. Dr. Philippe Blanchard, 09/2006-11/2009
NEMO described ways to optimise the structure of R&D collaboration networks for creating, transferring and distributing knowledge.

OSIRIS - Open architecture for Smart and Interoperable networks in Risk management based on In-situ Sensors
IP in FP 6, project partner: Dr.-Ing. Daniel Hahn, APS Mechatronik, 09/2006-04/2009
The European system OSIRIS offers services improving the continuous monitoring of the environment and the real time management of a crisis. OSIRIS has been successfully experimented in real conditions in four major environmental situations.
