To the best of my knowledge, my 1977 PhD thesis was the first work that develped a computational approach to the problem of learning to discriminate between solid objects by means of tactile recognition using an anthropomorphic artificial hand (known as "Belgrado's hand", built at Mihailo Pupin Institute). In 1979-1980, while working for IKERLAN, I developed the first expert system (for designing electrical power transformers) in Spain and one of the earliest expert systems in Europe. Presently working in Case-Based Reasoning, Object-based Place Recognition and Localization for Autonomous Robots , Team Playing Behavior in Robot Soccer based on CBR (take a look at some videos: two robots passing the ball, no goalie, two robots against one goalie), and on CBR & Music (check out and listen to a couple of examples on the automatic synthesis of expressive jazz ballads performed by our system called SaxEx: EXAMPLE 1: compare the inexpressive input and the resulting computer-generated expressive performance of the famous "Autumn Leaves" ballad. EXAMPLE 2: listen to the resulting computer-generated joyful and sad versions of "All of Me" and compare them to the inexpressive input. SaxEx has been featured in the New Scientist's paper: "Bird lives - Charlie Parker could soon be playing in your living room". Involved in over 50 research grants since 1983 (19 internationally funded), IP in 31 (16 internationally funded) of them amounting to more than 10 milion Euros. Several of my former PhD students are now internationally known AI scientists: Three of them, Enric Plaza, Carles Sierra, and Pedro Meseguer are ECCAI Fellows.
