Tutor Spotter : Proposing a Feature Set and Evaluating It in a Robotic System
(2012-04-01)
From learning by observation, robotic research has moved towards investigations of learning by interaction. This research is inspired by findings from developmental studies on human children and primates pointing to the ...
Contingency allows the robot to spot the tutor and to learn from interaction
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2011-01-01)
Aiming at artificial system learning from a human tutor elicit tutoring behavior, which we implemented on the robotic platform iCub. For the evaluation of the system with users, we considered a contingency module that is ...
Towards using prosody to scaffold lexical meaning in robots
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2011)
We present a case-study analysing the prosodic contours and salient word markers of a small corpus of robot-directed speech where the human participants had been asked to talk to a socially interactive robot as if it were ...
