Contact: Alain Finkel
We are working on topics that combine computer science and psychology. The central idea is to apply formal methods from computer science to better understand psychology.
A non-exhaustive list of the current research questions addressed in this group includes:
- Modeling psychological theories using formal tools such as automata
- Formalizing subjective experiences
- Modeling psychotherapy methods using formal tools
- Modeling personal narratives as symbolic sequences to enable alternative analyses
- Detecting emotions and mental states
