Intérêts de recherche

My research interests focus on proposing autonomous, intelligent and bio-inspired robotic devices capable of adapting to humans. More specifically, I'm interested in analyzing human motor control in order to propose models based on optimal control theory. I also intend to propose trajectory planning algorithms capable of adapting to the environment while taking into account uncertainties arising from sensors, model errors and/or numerical errors. Furthermore, designing and proposing customizable robotic solutions and devices for vulnerable people such as the elderly and people with motor deficits using human demonstrations and feedback are among my research interests.
