Background
Researcher at ISR-Lisboa, Instituto Superior Técnico
Main research areas: Robotics and Computer Vision
Focuses on understanding human actions from neurological, psychological, and physiological perspectives
Studies the role of non-verbal communication in decoding human action intentions
Aims to use non-verbal cues as a communication language between humans and robots for intuitive action understanding
