rlm@432: System for understanding what the actors in a video are doing --
rlm@432: Action Recognition.
rlm@422: 
rlm@432: Separate action recognition into three components:
rlm@426: 
rlm@426: \begin{itemize}
rlm@432: \item free play
rlm@432: \item embodied action predicates
rlm@432: \item model alignment
rlm@432: \item sensory imagination
rlm@432: \end{itemize}
rlm@432: \section{Steps}
rlm@432: \label{sec-2}
rlm@432: 
rlm@432: \begin{itemize}
rlm@432: \item Build cortex, a simulated environment for sensate AI
rlm@432: \begin{itemize}
rlm@432: \item solid bodies w/ joints
rlm@432: \item vision
rlm@432: \item touch
rlm@432: \item vision
rlm@432: \item hearing
rlm@432: \item proprioception
rlm@432: \item muscle contraction
rlm@426: \end{itemize}
rlm@429: 
rlm@432: \item Build experimental framework for worm-actions
rlm@432: \begin{itemize}
rlm@432: \item embodied stream predicates
rlm@432: \item \(\phi\)-space
rlm@432: \item \(\phi\)-scan
rlm@432: \end{itemize}

rlm@432: 
rlm@432: Experimental results:
rlm@432: 
rlm@432: \begin{itemize}
rlm@432: \item \(\phi\)-space actually works very well for the worm!
rlm@432: \item self organizing touch map
rlm@432: \end{itemize}

rlm@432: \section{Contributions}
rlm@432: \label{sec-4}
rlm@432: \begin{itemize}
rlm@432: \item Built \texttt{CORTEX}, a comprehensive platform for embodied AI
rlm@432: experiments. Has many new features lacking in other systems, such
rlm@432: as sound. Easy to model/create new creatures.
rlm@432: \item created a novel concept for action recognition by using artificial
rlm@432: imagination.
