    • Classification of Personal Data Used by Personalised Robot Companions Based on Concern of Exposure 

      Riches, Lewis; Koay, Kheng; Holthaus, Patrick (Springer Nature, 2023-02-02)
      We present a paper looking at the accidental exposure of personal data by personalised companion robots in human-robot interaction. Due to the need for personal data, personalisation brings inherent risk of accidental ...

    • Effects of Previous Exposure on Children’s Perception of a Humanoid Robot 

      Lakatos, Gabriella; Wood, Luke Jai; Zaraki, Abolfazl; Robins, Ben; Dautenhahn, Kerstin; Amirabdollahian, Farshid (Springer Nature, 2019-11-17)
      The study described in this paper investigated the effects of previous exposure to robots on children’s perception of the Kaspar robot. 166 children aged between 7 and 11 participated in the study in the framework of a UK ...

    • Evaluating people's perceptions of trust in a robot in a repeated interactions study 

      Rossi, Alessandra; Dautenhahn, Kerstin; Koay, Kheng; Walters, Michael; Holthaus, Patrick (2020-11-06)
      Trust has been established to be a key factor in fostering human-robot interactions. However, trust can change overtime according to different factors, including a breach of trust due to a robot’s error. In this exploratory ...

    • Evaluation of a Humanoid Robot’s Emotional Gestures for Transparent Interaction 

      Rossi, Alessandra; Scheunemann, Marcus; L’Arco, Gianluca; Rossi, Silvia (Springer Nature, 2021-11-02)
      Effective and successful interactions between robots and people are possible only when they both are able to infer the other’s intentions, beliefs, and goals. In particular, robots’ mental models need to be transparent to ...

    • How a Robot's Social Credibility Affects Safety Performance 

      Holthaus, Patrick; Menon, Catherine; Amirabdollahian, Farshid (Springer Nature, 2019-11-17)
      This paper connects the two domains of Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) and safety engineering to ensure that the design of interactive robots considers the effect of social behaviours on safety functionality. We conducted a ...

    • Kaspar Causally Explains 

      Araujo, Hugo; Holthaus, Patrick; Sarda Gou, Marina; Lakatos, Gabriella; Galizia, Giulia; Wood, Luke; Robins, Ben; Mousavi, Mohammadreza; Amirabdollahian, Farshid (Springer Nature, 2023-02-02)
      The Kaspar robot has been used with great success to work as an education and social mediator with children with autism spectrum disorder. Enabling the robot to automatically generate causal explanations is key to enrich ...

    • Two-Level Reinforcement Learning Framework for Self-Sustained Personal Robots 

      Fujii, Koyo; Holthaus, Patrick; Samani, H; Premachandra, Chinthaka; Amirabdollahian, Farshid (Springer Nature, 2023-12-03)
      As social robots become integral to daily life, effective battery management and personalized user interactions are crucial. We employed Q-learning with the Miro-E robot for balancing self-sustained energy management and ...
