Anne Cornelis van Rossum
Research projects: Replicator, ALwEN, STORM.
Research topics: Modular robotics, and more specific, self-organized neuroscientific and evolutionary-inspired control and sensor fusion software. The implementation of growing topologies by gene regulatory networks, associative memory by adaptive resonance theory, neural multi-agent systems by global workspace theory. Those techniques are currently implemented in a European FP7 project, Replicator. (Replicator robot organisms can morph into different body forms.) Those adaptive, self-organizing techniques are also implemented on wireless sensor networks. Keywords: modular robotics, sensor fusion, embedded programming, neural controllers, robotic engineering, applied neuroscience, wireless sensor networks, multi-agent systems
Biography: Anne C. van Rossum has a bachelor of science in Electrical Engineering at the Technical University Delft. This involves CMOS chip design, matlab, speech synthesis. He has a master of science in Media & Knowledge Engineering at the Technical University Delft, which covers the fields of artificial intelligence, digital signal processing, grammar parsers and semiotics. During those years, Anne has been working as a teaching and lab assistant in the electronics labs at the university. Contact
