Drumming with a humanoid robot : results from human-robot interaction studies
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2008)
Emergent dynamics of turn-taking interaction in drumming games with a humanoid robot
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2008)
Anticipating future experience using grounded sensorimotor informational relationships
(MIT Press, 2008)
Operational definitions and applications of the sensorimotor experience of an artificial embodied organism are presented along with a mathematical metric for distance between experiences based on Shannon information. We ...
What is an Appropriate Theory of Imitation for a Robot Learner?
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2008)
Developing social action capabilities in a humanoid robot using an interaction history architecture
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2008)
We present experimental results for the humanoid robot Kaspar2 engaging in a simple “peekaboo” interaction game with a human partner. The robot develops the capability to engage in the game by using its history of interactions ...
Teaching robot companions : The role of scaffolding and event structuring
(2008)
For robots to be more capable interaction partners they will necessarily need to adapt to the needs and requirements of their human companions. One way that the human could aid this adaptation may be by teaching the robot ...
Naturally occurring gestures in a human-robot interaction teaching scenario
(2008)
This paper describes our general framework for the investigation of how human gestures can be used to facilitate the interaction and communication between humans and robots. Two studies were carried out to reveal which ...
Computational memory architectures for autobiographic agents interacting in a complex virtual environment : a working model
(2008)
In this paper, we discuss the concept of autobiographic agent and how memory may extend an agent's temporal horizon and increase its adaptability. These concepts are applied to an implementation of a scenario where agents ...
Human to robot demonstrations of routine home tasks: exploring the role of the robot's feedback
(2008)
In this paper, we explore some conceptual issues, relevant for the design of robotic systems aimed at interacting with humans in domestic environments. More specifically, we study the role of the robot's feedback (positive ...
Drum-mate: A Human-Humanoid Drumming Experience
(2007)
We present an exploratory study investigating a drumming experience with Kaspar, a humanoid child-sized robot, and a human. In this work, our aim is not to have Kaspar just replicate the human partner's drumming, but to ...
