This paper presents the application of a statistical framework that allows to endow a humanoid robot with the ability to perform a collaborative manipulation task with a human operator. We investigate to what extent the dynamics of the motion and the hapti ...
Nonverbal communication is the main channel through which we experience inner life of others, including their emotions, feelings, moods, social attitudes, etc. This attracts the interest of the computing community because nonverbal communication is based o ...
This article reports on the results of a user study investigating the satisfaction of naïve users conducting two learning by demonstration tasks with the HOAP-3 robot. The main goal of this study was to gain insights on how to ensure a successful as well a ...
Controlling robots with multiple degrees of freedom (DOFs) is still an open and challenging issue, notably because planning complex, multidimensional trajectories in time-varying environments is a laborious and costly process. In this dissertation, we prop ...
Collaborative control architectures assist human users in performing tasks, without undermining their capabilities or curtailing the natural development of their skills. In this study, we evaluate our collaborative control architecture by investigating the ...
In this paper we investigate how boys and girls of 8 and 12 years old experience interacting with a social robot (iCat) during collaborative game play. The iCat robot and a child collaborated together to play a simple card guessing game. Post-game question ...
This thesis presents possible computational mechanisms by which a humanoid robot can develop a coherent representation of the space within its reach (its peripersonal space), and use it to control its movements. Those mechanisms are inspired by current the ...
Design, study, and control of mixed animals-robots societies is the field of scientific exploration that can bring new opportunities for study and control of groups of social animals. In the Chicken Robot project we develop a mobile robot, socially accepta ...
The ability to correctly identify the existence and polarity of emotion in informal, textual communication is a very important part of a realistic and immersive 3D environment where people communicate with one another through avatars or with an automated s ...
Faces play a vital role in people's daily lives, as they are able to convey many different information and above all their behaviour and emotions. Therefore, for decades the face has been investigated by researchers in several fields such as computer scien ...
