PhD positions in Robotics and Machine Learning for 2014 in the Italian Institute of Technologies

IIT is a solid place for AGI and cool robotics research, I recommend it based on what I know about them. As far as I see, those two new topics are a kind of development of an artificial cerebellum. THEME 8. Developmental Robotics And Robot Learning Of Motor Skills Tutors: Dr. Petar Kormushev, Prof. Darwin G. Caldwell Department: ADVR (Department of Advanced Robotics, Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia) THEME 9. Robot Learning For Agile Locomotion Of Compliant Humanoid Robots Tutors: Dr. Petar Kormushev, Prof. Nikos Tsagarakis  http://kormushev.com/news/phd-positions-in-robotics-and-machine-learning-for-2014/ Applications...
