Licenciatura degree in computer science, Universidade Nova de Lisboa, 1990.

Research
My research interests are in the broad area of intelligent systems, particularly in which concerns applications of artificial intelligence in robotics. My Ph.D. thesis (1997) focused on robot learning at the task level and it's application in the robotized assembly domain. In more recent projects, I have addressed other topics in human-robot interaction and multi-robot systems. Current research takes place within the Transverse Activity on Intelligent Robotics (ATRI/IEETA), of which I was the coordinator between 1999 and 2009. My main project at the moment is FP7 RACE - Robustness by Autonomous Competence Enhancement.
