"Social" robots are psychological agents for infants: A test of gaze following

Gaze following is a key component of human social cognition. Gaze following directs attention to areas of high information value and accelerates social, causal, and cultural learning. An issue for both robotic and infant learning is whose gaze to follow. The hypothesis tested in this study is that infants use information derived from an entity's interactions with other agents as evidence about ...

Infants' developing understanding of social gaze.

Young infants are sensitive to self-directed social actions, but do they appreciate the intentional, target-directed nature of such behaviors?

Ten-month-old infants discriminated between 2 people in mutual versus averted gaze, and expected a person to look at her soc...

e Design of Gaze Behavior for Social Robots

Humanlike robots are designed to communicate using human verbal and nonverbal language and engage in conversations with people where social gaze cues play an important role. While research in human-robot interaction has shown that people understand these cues and interpret them as valid signals for human communication, whether social gaze cues can serve as an effective communicative mechanism t...

Robots are Agents , Too ! Gal

Recent years are seeing a worrisome decline in the activity of roboticists within the Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems (AAMAS) community. Robotics papers, that were abundant in the early Autonomous Agents conferences, have almost disappeared in recent editions of the International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems. To some, this trend seems natural. After al...

Following Gaze: Gaze-Following Behavior as a Window into Social Cognition

In general, individuals look where they attend and next intend to act. Many animals, including our own species, use observed gaze as a deictic ("pointing") cue to guide behavior. Among humans, these responses are reflexive and pervasive: they arise within a fraction of a second, act independently of task relevance, and appear to undergird our initial development of language and theory of mind. ...
