Understanding Operator Attitudes Toward AI-Supported Decision Making in Maritime Operations
Doreen Jirak, Armeen Saroukanoff, Dirk van Rooy
Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS) and AI- supported decision assistants are expected to transform maritime operations, but their safe integration depends on how maritime pro…
Prompt-to-Gesture: Measuring the Capabilities of Image-to-Video Deictic Gesture Generation
Hassan Ali, Doreen Jirak, Luca Müller +1
Gesture recognition research, unlike NLP, continues to face acute data scarcity, with progress constrained by the need for costly human recordings or image processing approaches th…
From Sea to System: Exploring User-Centered Explainable AI for Maritime Decision Support
Doreen Jirak, Pieter Maes, Armeen Saroukanoff +1
As autonomous technologies increasingly shape maritime operations, understanding why an AI system makes a decision becomes as crucial as what it decides. In complex and dynamic mar…
Asch Meets HRI: Human Conformity to Robot Groups
Jasmin Bernotat, Doreen Jirak, Eduardo Benitez Sandoval +2
We present a research outline that aims at investigating group dynamics and peer pressure in the context of industrial robots. Our research plan was motivated by the fact that indu…
I am Only Happy When There is Light: The Impact of Environmental Changes on Affective Facial Expressions Recognition
Doreen Jirak, Alessandra Sciutti, Pablo Barros +1
Human-robot interaction (HRI) benefits greatly from advances in the machine learning field as it allows researchers to employ high-performance models for perceptual tasks like dete…
Snapture -- A Novel Neural Architecture for Combined Static and Dynamic Hand Gesture Recognition
Hassan Ali, Doreen Jirak, Stefan Wermter
As robots are expected to get more involved in people's everyday lives, frameworks that enable intuitive user interfaces are in demand. Hand gesture recognition systems provide a n…
Solving Visual Object Ambiguities when Pointing: An Unsupervised Learning Approach
Doreen Jirak, David Biertimpel, Matthias Kerzel +1
Whenever we are addressing a specific object or refer to a certain spatial location, we are using referential or deictic gestures usually accompanied by some verbal description. Es…
Potentials and Limitations of Deep Neural Networks for Cognitive Robots
Doreen Jirak, Stefan Wermter
Although Deep Neural Networks reached remarkable performance on several benchmarks and even gained scientific publicity, they are not able to address the concept of cognition as a…
