Mutual Initiative in Human-Machine Teams
نویسندگان
چکیده
Autonomous systems are widely used today in industry. The human-machine relationship in these systems is primarily that of a human supervisory role. This paper explores the concept of human-robot teams where each member of the team has the ability to assume initiative within a task. Key to this effort is not only the ability of the human to understand and predict robot performance, but the robot’s ability to identify human needs and select intervention points to assume different levels of initiative. The objective is to incorporate mobile autonomous robots into human teams to augment both the human’s cognitive and physical abilities in the performance of potentially hazardous tasks.

Toward an Ontology of Regulation: Socially-Based Support for Coordination in Human and Machine Joint Activity
In this chapter we explore the role of regulation in joint activity that is conducted among people and how understanding this better can enhance the efforts of researchers seeking to develop effective means to coordinate the performance of consequential work within mixed teams of humans, agents, and robots. Our analysis reveals challenges to the quality of human-machine mutual understanding; th...
متن کاملInvestigating Collaborative Creativity via Machine-Mediated Game Blending
Can the creativity of humans be enhanced through mutual cooperation, or is it a detriment to their own individual creativity? Although most artists are known for their artistic individuality, some of the best creative works were achieved through mutual collaborative efforts. This paper proposes the study of a game blending system capable of combining userand machine-generated content from multi...
متن کاملSemantic Based Support for Planning Information Delivery in Human-agent Collaborative Teams
Collaborative teams are organizations where joint members work together to solve mutual goals. Mixed-initiative planning systems are useful tools in such situations, because they can support several common activities performed in these organizations. However, as collaborative members are involved in different decision making planning levels, they consequently require different information types...

Human and computer subsystems should be structured and designed to work in mutually cooperating ways guaranteeing a user's usability. For this purpose, progressive system redesigns are needed with respect to human computer interactions to increase system reliability and transparency by increasing human-system interactions and especially a human user's proactive participation, rather than by eli...
متن کاملAlgorithm Steering for Mixed-Initiative Robot Teams
While much research has been devoted to human-robot interaction (HRI) with individually controlled robots or round-robin control for independently operating ones, the problems of controlling autonomously coordinating robot teams remain largely unexplored. Although MAS researchers have devoted significant effort to understand human interaction with teamwork algorithms other significant classes o...
