چکیده

It is challenging to build socially-aware robots due to the inherent uncertainty in the dynamics of human behavior. To become socially-aware, robots need to be capable of recognizing activities in their environment to make informed actions in concert with copresent humans. In this paper, we present and validate an event-based method for robots to detect synchronous and asynchronous actions of humans when working as a team in a human-social environment. Our results suggest that our method is capable of detecting synchronous and asynchronous actions, which a step towards building socially aware robots.

Role Distribution in Synchronous Human-Robot Joint Action

Robots are becoming a part of our daily lives, and humans and robots are beginning to work together as teams to achieve common goals. In a human-robot interaction (HRI) scenario, it is important to assign roles to both the human and the robot, as these role assignments may affect the fluidity and the effectiveness of the interaction. In this paper, we discuss different role distribution models ...
