Teaching Robot Policies to Humans Using Erroneous Examples
Rithika Narayan, Suresh Kumaar Jayaraman, Henny Admoni
Human-robot collaboration describes the process of humans and autonomous agents working together to accomplish common goals. This process is facilitated best when robot policies, o…
Beyond Overt Reactions: Analyzing Subtle User Emotional Response to Unexpected In-Vehicle System Behavior
Huy Quyen Ngo, Suresh Kumaar Jayaraman, Brian Mok +4
Modern vehicles, with advanced AI voice and autonomous navigation features, extend beyond traditional driving but, like any autonomous system, can potentially make mistakes or beha…
Understanding Robot Minds: Leveraging Machine Teaching for Transparent Human-Robot Collaboration Across Diverse Groups
Suresh Kumaar Jayaraman, Reid Simmons, Aaron Steinfeld +1
In this work, we aim to improve transparency and efficacy in human-robot collaboration by developing machine teaching algorithms suitable for groups with varied learning capabiliti…
Efficient Behavior-aware Control of Automated Vehicles at Crosswalks using Minimal Information Pedestrian Prediction Model
Suresh Kumaar Jayaraman, Lionel P. Robert, Xi Jessie Yang +2
For automated vehicles (AVs) to reliably navigate through crosswalks, they need to understand pedestrians crossing behaviors. Simple and reliable pedestrian behavior models aid in…
Analysis and Prediction of Pedestrian Crosswalk Behavior during Automated Vehicle Interactions
Suresh Kumaar Jayaraman, Dawn M. Tilbury, X. Jessie Yang +2
For safe navigation around pedestrians, automated vehicles (AVs) need to plan their motion by accurately predicting pedestrians trajectories over long time horizons. Current approa…
