Baran Çürüklü, Senior Lecturer


Baran Çürüklü has received his PhD in Artificial intelligence from Mälardalen University (MDH) in April 2005. Computational models of the emergence of the cortical network and the information processing in the sensory cortex of the mammals (primary visual cortex of cats and monkeys) was broadly the scope. The models addressed emergence of orientation selectivity, contrast invariance as well as, the roles on the local and the long-range horizontal connections in these phenomena. Since 2007 he has worked in national projects on Human – industrial robot interaction (I-HRI, Robot Colleague), and more recently, since 2015, is involved in a number national, DPAC (KKS), and international, eCraft2Learn (Horizon 2020), SWARMs (ECSEL JU), AFarCloud (ECSEL JU) projects. These projects aim at designing multi-robot multi-human systems, strategies for adaptive autonomous agents, and emergence of complex systems and interactions.
