Public Evaluation on Potential Social Impacts of Fully Autonomous Cybernetic Avatars for Physical Support in Daily-Life Environments: Large-Scale Demonstration and Survey at Avatar Land
Lotfi El Hafi, Kazuma Onishi, Shoichi Hasegawa +18
Cybernetic avatars (CAs) are key components of an avatar-symbiotic society, enabling individuals to overcome physical limitations through virtual agents and robotic assistants. Whi…
Haptic-Informed ACT with a Soft Gripper and Recovery-Informed Training for Pseudo Oocyte Manipulation
Pedro Miguel Uriguen Eljuri, Hironobu Shibata, Maeyama Katsuyoshi +2
In this paper, we introduce Haptic-Informed ACT, an advanced robotic system for pseudo oocyte manipulation, integrating multimodal information and Action Chunking with Transformers…
Reward-Independent Messaging for Decentralized Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning
Naoto Yoshida, Tadahiro Taniguchi
In multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL), effective communication improves agent performance, particularly under partial observability. We propose MARL-CPC, a framework that en…
System 0/1/2/3: Quad-process theory for multi-timescale embodied collective cognitive systems
Tadahiro Taniguchi, Yasushi Hirai, Masahiro Suzuki +3
This paper introduces the System 0/1/2/3 framework as an extension of dual-process theory, employing a quad-process model of cognition. Expanding upon System 1 (fast, intuitive thi…
