	Movellan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In Destiny of the Daleks, it was revealed that the Movellans encountered the Daleks while both sides were expanding their interstellar empires beyond the bounds of the galaxy and immediately engaged in a war which lasted for centuries.
		Curiously, although the Movellans had indicated their ambition not just to defeat the Daleks but to also conquer the galaxy, the results of the Movellan victory were never alluded to in the television series, nor was there any indication that they continued to conquer new territories.
		In the spin-off novel War of the Daleks by John Peel, it was claimed by the Dalek Prime that the Movellans were actually the creation of the Daleks themselves and that the war was faked as part of an elaborate plan to prevent the destruction of Skaro as recorded in history.

		Movellan has experienced this frustration himself: "We tested our expression recognition system against the standard data sets in the field, and we were getting performance on the order of 97 percent, better than anyone else in the world.
		Movellan is not the first AI researcher to propose this approach.
		Movellan was too embarrassed to mention the incident to his colleagues, but later, he confided his experience to some neuro-scientists.

	COSC 311 Web Portal - What bots can teach tots
		Javier Movellan, one of the developers, wishes to have these robots be able to interact with these unpredictable, flesh and blood humans.
		Movellan first came up with the idea of this “robot teacher” in 2000 when his lab collaborated on a National Science Foundation project to develop computers for various classrooms.
		Movellan is in the process of testing out Rubi's face tracker, which allows her to automatically direct her attention to the children as they cross her path.

	A human touch for machines
		There is no quick way for Movellan to say, but somewhere in the trillions of bits of information stored in his computer, he is convinced, there is an answer.
		Movellan is part of a growing network of scientists working to disprove long-held assumptions that computers are, by nature, logical geniuses but emotional dunces.
		For Terry Sejnowski, director of the Institute for Neural Computation at UCSD and Movellan's mentor, the pursuit of emotion machines began a decade ago when he viewed Sexnet, a program designed to distinguish male from female faces that had been stripped of cultural cues such as hair and cosmetics.

		Movellan cited an aural illusion, called the Mcgurk effect, whereby a speaker says "ga" but with his lips forms "ba." The listener invariably hears something in between, usually "da."
		By correlating the movement of pixels with the sound waves, it is possible to put closed captions beneath the current speaker in, say, a panel discussion, rather than just running them on the bottom of the screen and leaving it up to the user to figure out who is saying what.
		In the case of Bartlett's facial recognition of emotions, the trick was to use the same sort of processing in a computer that is used in the visual cortex of the brain.

		The Movellans were a race of lithe androids with a penchant for silver dreadlocks.
		For centuries the Movellans fought a war with the Daleks, their battle fleets in deadlock as both side's battle computers matched the other, move for move.
		The Movellans sought to break this logical impasse, landing on Skaro in pursuit of a Dalek force.

		Until the operation comes to fruition, both Dalek and Movellan forces suffer ‘casualties’, who are placed in storage until they can be brought out again during the final phase of the operation.
		Dalek/ Movellan interaction --------------------------- The Movellans were created specifically to allow the Daleks an excuse for large numbers of their forces to vanish as ‘battle casualties’.

	Chapter Ten: The Movellan/Dalek Wars - Destiny of the Daleks
		An escaped prisoner, Tyssan, is captured by Movellan scouts, and leads the Doctor and the Movellans to the Daleks underground control center.
		Using her as bait, the Movellans capture the Doctor, who has figured out that the Movellans are a race of robots, intent on the conquest of the galaxy themselves.
		Aboard their ship the Doctor and Romana learn that the Movellans are merciless and logical, and that they have been fighting the Daleks for centuries, but a stalemate has been reached.

	Destiny of the Daleks
		The Doctor tells Tyssan and the three Movellans that this place was where the Daleks were created thousands of years ago...they ravaged the place and left it for dead.
		The humans, however, fall unconscious in the fight and soon the Movellans are moving at the Doctor who launches himself at the controls with a tube in his mouth.
		In War of the Daleks, it is revealed that the relationship between the Daleks and Movellans isn’t quite as it appears here, but is instead part of a plan to prevent the destruction of Skaro in Remembrance of the Daleks.

	War of the Daleks
		Unfortunately for the Daleks, a Movellan ship is sent to investigate the Dalek operations on Skaro and after some interference from the renegade Timelord known as the Doctor, the Humans take Davros prisoner.
		The Movellans have all but wiped out the Daleks, the remainder having scattered around the galaxy in small groups in an effort to minimise risk of contagion from the Movellan plague.
		The Movellans have captured a number of high-ranking Daleks (including some members of the Supreme Council) during the war, and as part of their interrogation, have modified these with mind control implants.

		Movellan, 45, would never have made it through more than two decades of working with robots if he didn't have a high threshold for frustration.
		Movellan remains confident that he will see "everyday" robots in his lifetime: teaching machines in the classroom, physical rehab systems with a "human touch," and robotic companions that can develop personal relationships.
		Movellan's Machine Perception Lab sits in a corner of the Applied Physics and Mathematics Building, with a view of the Pacific so lovely it's surprising that any work gets done at all.

	EETimes.com - E-mail 'happy faces' come alive
		Deep inside the urban canyons of San Diego, the heart of an engineer waxes and wanes, happiness or sadness seesawing on the strength of two punctuation marks — a colon paired with a parenthesis, either closed :) or open :(.
		Since Movellan founded the Machine Perception Lab three years ago, he has focused its research on automating the recognition of communication modalities that people naturally use, but which are foreign to current computer user interfaces.
		Movellan cited an interesting aural illusion, called the Mcgurk effect, whereby a speaker says "ga" but with his lips forms "ba." The listener invariably hears something in between, usually "da."

	Chapter Eleven: The Mutant Phase - Resurrection of the Daleks
		But soon it became apparent that there was no defense, for the enemy which decimated the Dalek fleet, the enemy which destroyed the Movellans, the enemy which was currently ripping a path of destruction across the galaxy, were Daleks themselves.
		Yet despite this fact, and despite the fact that the Movellans had made it perfectly clear in “Destiny of the Daleks,”; that they intended to invade the galaxy, they are never heard from in the series again.
		Unfortunately the Movellan virus does it work, and the Daleks sent to kill Davros are destroyed.

		Movellan finds another way of bringing chess into the discussion of social robotics: as an analogy for daily life.
		Movellan strongly believes that these topics must be considered in order for social robotics to advance.
		In the meantime, the costs of the computer cluster were funded by a related research project from the National Science Foundation; the project’s ongoing efforts to develop machine perception software, RUBI’s appearance and the equipment that allows her to interact with children in a human-like manner are supported by a University of California Discovery grant.

		The Movellans found themselves at war with the Daleks when they tried to invade human space.
		The Daleks tried to win the war by recovering Davros, but were thwarted by the Fourth Doctor, Tyssan, and Movellan commander, Sharrel.
		The fate of the Movellans is unknown, but it is likely that their over-reliance on logic caused them to be defeated by the Empire when they actually attempted their invasion of the human space.

		This highly anticipated exhibition of Pedro De Movellan's recent sculptures marks the Gallery's fourth one-man show of this increasingly sought-after kinetic sculpture.
		His work demonstrates the refined perfectionism of the master craftsman's hand: the sleek curve of carefully worked metal, wooden elements with gleaming surface reflections and color, and calculated joins that yield solid construction and graceful movement.
		Applying this standard to themes often referenced from nature, De Movellan repeatedly creates kinetic works that combine the organic grace of naturally occurring forms with the refined precision of man-made machinery.

		The first lesson in human-robot relations, says Javier Movellan, director of the laboratory and leader of the experiment, is that 10- to 24-month-olds are a tough crowd.
		The problem is that engineers have sorely underestimated the supreme difficulty of designing machines that could anticipate human social behaviour enough to perform at the level of a child's brain.
		He is also planning experiments that would program RUBI to become a substitute teacher for autistic children who, as part of their treatment, must be repetitively drilled to learn basic social skills, such as maintaining eye contact, which healthy children would pick up automatically.

		All of the Movellan androids wear white, form-fitting uniforms and wear their hair in white dreadlocks.
		However, the major weakness of the Movellan design is each android's external power pack which, being, carried on their belts, is easily removed and completely shuts down the android.
		The weapon operates much like a laser, focusing a stream of photos accelerated from a crystal emitter into a beam of variable intensity.
