In multimodal interaction, research focus is to rely on different modalities and investigate how to apply fusion techniques on these in order to generate the correct interpretation of the user intention. Here, we will investigate also how to select the proper communication channels and to optimize their features to each user. In this view, the majority of the robotic applications are based on static user models: this prevents systems from adapting independently and proactively to changes in the needs and preferences of users. The aim of the present proposal is to investigate how to merge human-robot and, in general, human-machine multimodal interaction research issues with online adaptive learning ones.</div><div><br></div><div>Candidates should have a PhD in Robotics/Computer Science, Learning Technology or Cognitive Science. Annual salary for each candidate is 25000 Euro.</div><div><br></div><div>Candidates will work with an energetic and positive research group, and on interesting and innovative HRI research projects. Candidates will work in the fascinating, nature and culture-rich city of Naples described by Alexandre Dumas as "the flower of paradise".<br></div><div><br></div><div>For inquiries and further information, please contact Prof. Silvia Rossi: <a href="mailto:silvia.rossi@unina.it">silvia.rossi@unina.it</a></div><div><br></div><div>Kind regards,</div><div>Dr. Alessandra Rossi</div><div><br></div><div><div name="x_divtagdefaultwrapper" style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif,serif,EmojiFont;margin:0px">
