In View or Out of View? A Vision-Aware Filter that Infers and Reacts to the Human's Field of View

Mengxue Fu, Ya-Chuan Hsu, Yinlong Dai +2

During human-robot interaction, sight plays an important role. When the human sees a robot, they can observe the robot's actions and better predict the robot's future behaviors. Co…

Red-Teaming of Vision-Language-Action Models via Quality Diversity Environment Generation

Shihan Zhao, Henry Chen, Ya-Chuan Hsu +7

A long-standing goal in robotics is to develop generalist robots that can perform tasks across a wide range of settings, flexibly specified with images and text. Vision-Language-Ac…

Fix the Mind, Not the Move: Interpretable AI Assistance via Knowledge-Gap Localization

Ayano Hiranaka, Ya-Chuan Hsu, Stefanos Nikolaidis +2

AI assistants in human-AI collaboration often correct suboptimal human actions through behavioral feedback (e.g., alerts or steering-wheel nudges in assistive driving). Such interv…

Timing the Message: Language-Based Notifications for Time-Critical Assistive Settings

Ya-Chuan Hsu, Jonathan DeCastro, Andrew Silva +1

In time-critical settings such as assistive driving, assistants often rely on alerts or haptic signals to prompt rapid human attention, but these cues usually leave humans to inter…

Integrating Field of View in Human-Aware Collaborative Planning

Ya-Chuan Hsu, Michael Defranco, Rutvik Patel +1

In human-robot collaboration (HRC), it is crucial for robot agents to consider humans' knowledge of their surroundings. In reality, humans possess a narrow field of view (FOV), lim…

Surrogate Assisted Generation of Human-Robot Interaction Scenarios

Varun Bhatt, Heramb Nemlekar, Matthew C. Fontaine +4

As human-robot interaction (HRI) systems advance, so does the difficulty of evaluating and understanding the strengths and limitations of these systems in different environments an…

Generating Diverse Indoor Furniture Arrangements

Ya-Chuan Hsu, Matthew C. Fontaine, Sam Earle +3

We present a method for generating arrangements of indoor furniture from human-designed furniture layout data. Our method creates arrangements that target specified diversity, such…

On the Importance of Environments in Human-Robot Coordination

Matthew C. Fontaine, Ya-Chuan Hsu, Yulun Zhang +2

When studying robots collaborating with humans, much of the focus has been on robot policies that coordinate fluently with human teammates in collaborative tasks. However, less emp…
