Biography:

 

Poramate Manoonpong was born in Nan, Thailand, in 1978.

Currently, he is a Professor of Bio-inspired Robotics at the School of Information Science and Technology, Vidyasirimedhi Institute of Science and Technology (VISTEC), Thailand and has also served as a Professor of SDU Biorobotics, the Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Institute, the University of Southern Denmark (SDU), Denmark.

 

He received his B.Eng. degree in mechanical engineering from the King Mongkut's University of Technology Thonburi, Thailand, in 2000, M.Sc. degree in mechatronics from Fachhochschule Ravensburg-Weingarten, Germany, in 2002, and Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering and computer science from the University of Siegen, Germany, in 2006.

 

He was a JSPS Postdoctoral fellow at Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute International, Computational Neuroscience Laboratories, Department of Brain Robot Interface, Kyoto, Japan. He was also the group leader of the Emmy Noether research project for "Neural Control, Memory, and Learning for Complex Behaviors in Multi Sensori-Motor Robotic Systems" at Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience (BCCN), Department for Computational Neuroscience, Third Institute of Physics-Biophysics, the University of Goettingen, Germany. He has been PI or co-PI of 16 funded projects.

 

Currently he serves on an Associate Editor of Frontiers in Neuroscience (Neurorobotics) and Adaptive Behavior (SAGE journal), the editorial board of International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems (ARS), (Topic: Bioinspired Robotics) and Advances in Robotics Research, Techno press, and as a program committee member for international conferences and workshops. He has published over eighty publications in major robotics journals and conferences and and edited two books.

 

Research interests: Embodied AI, machine learning for robotics, neural locomotion control of walking machines, biomechanics, dynamics of recurrent neural networks, learning/plasticity, embodied cognitive systems, prosthetic and orthopaedic devices, exoskeletons, brain-machine interface, human-machine interaction, service/inspection robots.

 

My long-term agenda: "To understand how brain-like mechanisms including biomechanics can be realized in artificial agents so they can become more like living creatures in their level of performance"

 

In order to achieve my goal, I have developed neural mechanisms for locomotion generation and adaptation in legged robots, e.g., dynamic biped walking robot "RunBot" and adaptive animal-like robots “AMOS”.
