Symbol, Conversational, and Societal Grounding with a Toy Robot
نویسندگان
چکیده
Essential to meaningful interaction is grounding at the symbolic, conversational, and societal levels. We present ongoing work with Anki’s Cozmo toy robot as a research platform where we leverage the recent words-as-classifiers model of lexical semantics in interactive reference resolution tasks for

Embodied AI: Symbol Grounding through Imagination
This paper presents the principle of symbol grounding in robots. If a robot does not understand words, the robot cannot autonomously talk in the physical world. Understanding language symbols is a necessary condition for autonomous conversations. First, how humans understand language symbols is briefly studied. Humans’ symbol manipulation is based on imagination. Recent brain science shows that...
متن کاملThe Grounding and Sharing of Symbols
The double function of language, as a social/communicative means, and as an individual/cognitive capability, derives from its fundamental property that allows us to internally re-represent the world we live in. This is possible through the mechanism of symbol grounding, i.e. the ability to associate entities and states in the external and internal world with internal categorical representations...
متن کاملSymbol grounding in communicative mobile robots
This paper reports on an experiment in which two mobile robots solve the symbol grounding problem in a particular experimental setup. The robots do so by engaging in a series of so-called language games. In a language game the robots try to name an object that is in their environment first by categorizing their sensing, then by naming this categorization. When the robots fail to categorize or n...
متن کاملAn Ontology-based Symbol Grounding System for Human-Robot Interaction
One of the fundamental issues in HRI is to enable robust mappings of the robot’s low-level perceptions of the world and the symbolic terms used by humans to describe the world. When a shared symbol grounding is achieved (when human and robot use the same terms to denote the same physical entities) a two way interaction is enabled. This interaction is an important step towards robots assisting h...
متن کاملLanguage Acquisition and Symbol Grounding Transfer with Neural Networks and Cognitive Robots [IJCNN1323]
Neural networks have been proposed as an ideal cognitive modeling methodology to deal with the symbol grounding problem. More recently, such neural network approaches have been incorporated in studies based on cognitive agents and robots. In this paper we present a new model of symbol grounding transfer in cognitive robots. Language learning simulations demonstrate that robots are able to acqui...
