Las fallas del mercado son difíciles de entender, debido a una variedad de factores que se confunden entre sí. La política pública enfrenta el desafío de distinguir cada uno de esos factores. El Instituto Milenio para el estudio de Imperfecciones del Mercado y Políticas Públicas, MIPP, desarrolla y difunde investigación de vanguardia sobre las respuestas de política pública a las distintas fallas del mercado. Para ello, el MIPP desarrolla herramientas para evaluar diseños de políticas públicas y realiza recomendaciones que mejoren el bienestar y el funcionamiento de mercados y organizaciones. Los investigadores de este Instituto Milenio desarrollan investigación de frontera en Organización Industrial, Macroeconomía, Finanzas y Economía Política. Los resultados de estas investigaciones se presentan en prestigiosas conferencias en el mundo y se publican en las mejores revistas académicas en Economía, Ciencias Políticas y Administración. El MIPP genera también herramientas metodologicas que permiten entregar información relevante para la toma de decisiones del sector público y privado; genera puntos de encuentro, discusión e intercambio de conocimiento entre investigadores nacionales e internacionales; y desarrolla actividades de difusión abiertas a la comunidad que incluyen talleres de Economía y sesiones de Educación Financiera para pequeños empresarios.

Position that involved teaching an undergraduate course to students from ENS along with research on an experimental study of wave turbulence.

In the previous project the research focus was on the sensing principle and the development of prototype modules for a tactile proximity sensor (TPS). In the current project the focus is on the methods and algorithms with which the events in the near proximity of the robots can be modelled by means of these sensors. Collectively, the TPS on the robot surface and gripper constitute a smart skin. The application scenarios here are the Active Exploration of the Environment, Grasping and the Safe Human-Robot-Interaction. The methods to be developed will improve significantly on the quality of state of the art methods and expand the horizon of possible solutions for these problems. The capacitive measuring principle and the spatial resolution in both, the tactile and proximity modalities, enable an area-wide and distance based coverage of the robot surroundings. It is the first time that algorithms for Exploration, Grasping and Safe-Human-Robot-Interaction are presented that rely simultaneously on both tactile and proximity sensing with spatial resolution. The goal of the Exploration is to research which methods and strategies enable the robot to acquire a contact- and proximity-based world-model by means of TPS. The quality of state of the art solutions for grasping should be improved significantly. For the Safe-Human-Robot-Interaction algorithms should be developed that adapt the robots path and velocity according to the current situation as determined by the TPS. Also, new algorithms should make a TPS-based Interaction possible with the goal of robot controlling and programming by the human through tactile and proximity input. Finally, according to the context of the task and situation at hand (Exploration, Manipulation and Interaction) the robot should show an appropriate behaviour which is given by a behavioural strategy that will also be developed. The starting point in the project is the TPS-modules which were successfully developed in the previous project. At the beginning, research will be focused on the algorithms for signal processing that extract robust features from TPS for higher level tasks. This step is followed by the integration of TPS into a robot system realizing the smart skin. Building on these steps the methods for Exploration, Manipulation and Safe-Human-Interaction are developed. Finally, the results of the project will be shown and evaluated in a combined demonstration scenario that includes a robot endowed with TPS.
