Biography
I am a PhD student at EPFL (EDEE) and I am currently working at IDIAP in the Perception and Activity Understanding group under the supervision of Jean-Marc Odobez. In the frame of the MuMMER project, I am working on modeling and infering attention in Human-Robot Interactions. Exploiting color and depth images as well as audio data, my goal is to estimate the individual attention of a group of people that is interacting with the robot. This information will allow it to better understand humans and to react properly in social interactions.
