Xavier Alameda-Pineda is a Research Director at Inria Grenoble Rhône-Alpes, where he leads the RobotLearn Team. He is affiliated with Université Grenoble Alpes and has been a key member of the Perception team. His work integrates machine learning, computer vision, and audio processing for scene understanding and human-robot interaction. Research Interests: His research lies at the intersection of multimodal machine learning and social behavior analysis. He focuses on developing algorithms for understanding human behavior in natural settings using audio-visual signals, with applications in robotics and AI companions. His work emphasizes real-world challenges such as noisy data, missing modalities, and dynamic environments. Publication Trends: His recent publications reflect a consistent focus on multimodal fusion, particularly combining vision and audio for social scene analysis. Themes include group behavior recognition, sound source separation, and cross-modal learning, often applied in robotics contexts. Scientific Awards: SIGMM Rising Star Award 2018 IEEE TMM Outstanding Associate Editor Award 2022 ACM TOMM Best Paper Award 2020 Best Paper Award, ACM MM 2015 Best Scientific Paper Award, ICPR 2016 Best Student Paper Award, IEEE WASPAA 2015 Outstanding Paper Award, ICMI 2011 Novel Technology Paper Award Finalist, IROS 2017 Advising and Grants: Xavier has mentored students and early-career researchers, evidenced by co-authored student papers. He coordinated the H2020 SPRING project on socially pertinent robots in gerontological healthcare and co-leads an AI chair on audio-visual perception for companion robots, indicating leadership in funded research initiatives. Labs and Teams: He is the leader of the RobotLearn Team at Inria and was previously part of the Perception team. He has also collaborated with the Multimodal and Human Understanding Group at the University of Trento.
