Legible motion — motion that communicates its intent to a human observer — is crucial for enabling seamless human-robot collaboration. In this paper, we propose a functional gradient optimization technique for autonomously generating legible motion. Our algorithm optimizes a legibility metric inspired by the psychology of action interpretation in humans, resulting in motion trajectories that pu...

Abstract In this paper we propose a method to augment Reinforcement Learning agent with legibility. This is inspired by the literature in Explainable Planning and allows regularize agent’s policy after training, without requiring modify its learning algorithm. achieved evaluating how optimal may produce observations that would make an observer model infer wrong policy. our formulation, decision...

The notion that Africans lack a sense of future was extensively debated following John Mbiti’s African Religions and Philosophy (1969) has since entered the scholarly popular discourse as fixed topos which we label #African time (‘Europeans have watches, time’). most recent references to are found in vision reports many states non-governmental organisations (NGOs) assert demand for Africa from ...

PURPOSE We performed an analysis of the smartphone legibility of the websites of the Korean Urological Association (KUA) and other urological societies. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study was conducted on the websites of the KUA and nine other urological societies. Each website was accessed via iPhone Safari and Android Chrome, respectively, to evaluate the establishment and readability of the ...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of therapy balls as seating on in-seat behavior and legible word productivity of students with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Additionally, social validity was assessed to evaluate teacher and student opinions regarding the intervention. METHOD A single subject, A-B-A-B interrupted time series design was empl...
