Real-time face swapping as a tool for understanding infant self-recognition [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Conference on Epigenetic Robotics, Glumslov : Sweden (2010), 2011
To study the preference of infants for contingency of movements and familiarity of faces during self-recognition task, we built, as an accurate and instantaneous imitator, a real-time face- swapper for videos.

On Creativity of Elementary Cellular Automata [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
We map cell-state transition rules of elementary cellular automata (ECA) onto the cognitive control versus schizotypy spectrum phase space and interpret cellular automaton behaviour in terms of creativity. To implement the mapping we draw analogies between a degree of schizotypy and generative diversity of ECA rules, and between cognitive control and ...
