| Abstract |
How do I combine studying laughter, evacuating crowds and traffic accidents into my research?!!! Come and listen to my last WAI talk before going to work at Leeds University Business School. I will tell you about my current scientific research into determining the effects of laughter on health and my ideas for integrating laughter in AI research!! It will be a serious talk but also a very funny story about my experiences at the international laughter congress, where I was one of the keynote speakers this year :-) Also enjoy the good news about consolidating a H2020 grant and the contents of this European CSA project 'IMPACT': determining the effects of culture on crowds in emergency situations. Finally, where predicting traffic accidents fits in, I will reveal on Monday.. I hope to see you all before I leave to Leeds for 6 months!! |
