What is intrinsic motivation? A typology of computational approaches [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurorobotics, 2009
Intrinsic motivation, the causal mechanism for spontaneous exploration and curiosity, is a central concept in developmental psychology. It has been argued to be a crucial mechanism for open-ended cognitive development in humans, and as such has gathered ...

Robot End Effector Tracking Using Predictive Multisensory Integration

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurorobotics, 2018
We propose a biologically inspired model that enables a humanoid robot to learn how to track its end effector by integrating visual and proprioceptive cues as it interacts with the environment.

Teaching NICO How to Grasp: An Empirical Study on Crossmodal Social Interaction as a Key Factor for Robots Learning From Humans

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurorobotics, 2020
To overcome novel challenges in complex domestic environments, humanoid robots can learn from human teachers. We propose that the capability for social interaction should be a key factor in this teaching process and benefits both the subjective ...
