XPERO: Learning by Experimentation

Client ID: Evropska komisija (IST-29427)
Project type: European Project (Framework Programmes)
Project duration: 2006 - 2009


The overall objective is to develop an embodied cognitive system, which is able to conduct experiments in the real world with the purpose of gaining new insights about the world and the objects therein and to develop and improve its own cognitive skills and overall performance.

Expected results of the project are basic models, techniques, and system solutions, enabling an embodied agent to autonomously design and conduct experiments in a given context and to extract new insights from the results of the experiment.
