I am researching cognitive aspects of human and machine motor control and learning.
Given multiple noisy input streams humans infer a magnitude of representations with rich information about their environment, their body, physical and social interactions, expected outcome of actions, and many more. Multiple senses are also integrated into less conscious percepts, such as a percept of causality or a sense of agency, which again inform our conscious perception and action.
My research focuses on different aspects of these integrations and how their understanding can be used to explain mechanisms of psychoses or improve algorithmic control and machine learning.
The Adaptive Mind (TAM)
Together with the Translational Neuroimaging (TNM) Lab from the University of Marburg we examine how our actions shape a sense of agency (SoA) and how that is disturbed in schizophrenia spectrum disorder (SSD).
I explore implicit measurements of an SoA in behavioural and eye-tracking data from novel tracking tasks. Also, I apply and adapt models from Optimal Control and Reinforcement Learning to capture and explain the SoA.
With the TNM Lab we test the application of our paradigms and models as behavioural biomarkers for diagnosing SSD and for verifying hypotheses about the inner processes of the disorder.
