Research Interests
My research falls into the following three areas: Event Perception; Embodied Cognition; and Human Centered Computing. I am investigating (a) how people come to segment events that transpire along multiple tracks and how people construct the temporal relations amongst events; (b) how factors such as risks impact event perception; and (c) how differences in sensory motor feedback impact perceiving, remembering, and enacting events. I take an interdisciplinary approach, where I use a range of behavioral experimentation methods including eye tracking and computational methods including neural network models. Furthermore, I collaborate with colleagues in artificial intelligence building intelligent systems that are grounded in these basic research questions, and collaborate with colleagues in cognitive and clinical neuroscience in investigating how people with individual differences differ in real time event processing.
