Investigating Human Response, Behaviour, and Preference in Joint-Task Interaction
Alan Lindsay, Bart Craenen, Sara Dalzel-Job +2
Human interaction relies on a wide range of signals, including non-verbal cues. In order to develop effective Explainable Planning (XAIP) agents it is important that we understand…
Towards Social HRI for Improving Children's Healthcare Experiences
Mary Ellen Foster, Ronald P. A. Petrick
This paper describes a new research project that aims to develop a social robot designed to help children cope with painful and distressing medical procedures in a clinical setting…
Affordance-Aware Handovers with Human Arm Mobility Constraints
Paola Ardón, Maria E. Cabrera, Èric Pairet +4
Reasoning about object handover configurations allows an assistive agent to estimate the appropriateness of handover for a receiver with different arm mobility capacities. While th…
Proof-Carrying Plans: a Resource Logic for AI Planning
Alasdair Hill, Ekaterina Komendantskaya, Ronald P. A. Petrick
Recent trends in AI verification and Explainable AI have raised the question of whether AI planning techniques can be verified. In this paper, we present a novel resource logic, th…
Self-Assessment of Grasp Affordance Transfer
Paola Ardón, Èric Pairet, Ronald P. A. Petrick +2
Reasoning about object grasp affordances allows an autonomous agent to estimate the most suitable grasp to execute a task. While current approaches for estimating grasp affordances…
Affordances in Robotic Tasks -- A Survey
Paola Ardón, Èric Pairet, Katrin S. Lohan +2
Affordances are key attributes of what must be perceived by an autonomous robotic agent in order to effectively interact with novel objects. Historically, the concept derives from…
