SimSiam Naming Game: A Unified Approach for Emergent Communication and Representation Learning
Nguyen Le Hoang, Tadahiro Taniguchi, Tianwei Fang +2
Emergent Communication (EmCom) investigates how agents develop symbolic communication through interaction without predefined language. Recent frameworks, such as the Metropolis--Ha…
Whose Is This?: Context-Aware Object Ownership Inference with Uncertainty-Guided Questioning
Saki Hashimoto, Akira Taniguchi, Shoichi Hasegawa +2
Service robots must infer object ownership to correctly interpret instructions such as "bring me my cup." However, ownership is a latent attribute that cannot be directly observed,…
Reducing Mental Workload through On-Demand Human Assistance for Physical Action Failures in LLM-based Multi-Robot Coordination
Shoichi Hasegawa, Akira Taniguchi, Lotfi El Hafi +2
Multi-robot coordination based on large language models (LLMs) has attracted growing attention, since LLMs enable the direct translation of natural language instructions into robot…
Multi-Robot Task Planning for Multi-Object Retrieval Tasks with Distributed On-Site Knowledge via Large Language Models
Kento Murata, Shoichi Hasegawa, Tomochika Ishikawa +4
It is crucial to efficiently execute instructions such as "Find an apple and a banana" or "Get ready for a field trip," which require searching for multiple objects or understandin…
Toward Ownership Understanding of Objects: Active Question Generation with Large Language Model and Probabilistic Generative Model
Saki Hashimoto, Shoichi Hasegawa, Tomochika Ishikawa +4
Robots operating in domestic and office environments must understand object ownership to correctly execute instructions such as ``Bring me my cup.'' However, ownership cannot be re…
Take That for Me: Multimodal Exophora Resolution with Interactive Questioning for Ambiguous Out-of-View Instructions
Akira Oyama, Shoichi Hasegawa, Akira Taniguchi +2
Daily life support robots must interpret ambiguous verbal instructions involving demonstratives such as ``Bring me that cup,'' even when objects or users are out of the robot's vie…
