Formalizing Joint Attention in Cooperative Interaction with a Virtual Human
نویسندگان
چکیده
Crucial for action coordination of cooperating agents, joint attention concerns the alignment of attention to a target as a consequence of attending to each other’s attentional states. We describe a formal model which specifies the conditions and cognitive processes leading to the establishment of joint attention. This model provides a theoretical framework for cooperative interaction with a virtual human and is specified in an extended belief-desire-intention modal logic. keywordscooperative agents, attention, alignment, BDI, modal logic

An Operational Model of Joint Attention - Timing of Gaze Patterns in Interactions between Humans and a Virtual Human
Joint attention has been identified as a foundational skill in human-human interaction. If virtual humans are to engage in joint attention, they have to meet the expectations of their human interaction partner and provide interactional signals in a natural way. This requires operational models of joint attention with precise information on natural gaze timing. We substantiate our model of the j...

متن کاملCooperative Decision Making of DERs in a Joint Energy and Regulation Market in Presence of Electric Vehicles
Today due to increasing and evolving of electrical grids, the optimal and profitable energy production is among producers' major concerns. Thus, conventional ways of production and trading energy are being replaced by modern economical procedures. In addition, distributed energy resources (DERs) in form of renewable and conventional resources as well as responsive loads play an important role i...
متن کاملAn Operational Model of Joint Attention – Timing of the Initiate-Act in Interactions with a Virtual Human
Joint attention has been identified as a foundational skill in human-human interaction. In our research, we use virtual humans to evaluate cognitive models, here, enabling them to egage in joint attention. This requires an operational model with precise information on natural gaze timing. We aim at substantiating our model of joint attention (Pfeiffer-Leßmann & Wachsmuth 2009) by studying human...
متن کاملLive face-to-face interaction during fMRI: A new tool for social cognitive neuroscience
Cooperative social interaction is critical for human social development and learning. Despite the importance of social interaction, previous neuroimaging studies lack two fundamental components of everyday face-to-face interactions: contingent responding and joint attention. In the current studies, functional MRI data were collected while participants interacted with a human experimenter face-t...
