The ITALK project : A developmental robotics approach to the study of individual, social, and linguistic learning
(2014-07-24)
This article presents results from a multidisciplinary research project on the integration and transfer of language knowledge into robots as an empirical paradigm for the study of language development in both humans and ...
Interaction and Experience in Enactive Intelligence and Humanoid Robotics
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2013)
We overview how sensorimotor experience can be operationalized for interaction scenarios in which humanoid robots acquire skills and linguistic behaviours via enacting a “form-of-life”’ in interaction games (following ...
Temporal emphasis for goal extraction in task demonstration to a humanoid robot by naive users
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2013)
Goal extraction in learning by demonstration is a complex problem. A novel approach, inspired by developmental psychology and focused on use in experiments with naive users, is presented in this paper. Participants were ...
Mutual gaze, personality, and familiarity : Dual eye-tracking during conversation
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2012-09)
Mutual gaze is an important aspect of face-to-face communication that arises from the interaction of the gaze behavior of two individuals. In this dual eye-tracking study, gaze data was collected from human conversational ...
Integration of Action and Language Knowledge: A Roadmap for Developmental Robotics
(2010)
This position paper proposes that the study of embodied cognitive agents, such as humanoid robots, can advance our understanding of the cognitive development of complex sensorimotor, linguistic, and social learning skills. ...
As time goes by: representing and reasoning about timing in human-robot interaction studies
(AAAI, 2010)
We summarise the experimental design issues related to timing in several human-robot interaction scenarios investigating turn-taking or synchronization between child-sized humanoid robots and human participants. Our aim1 ...
