Enabling a Social Robot to Process Social Cues to Detect when to Help a User

Jason R. Wilson, Phyo Thuta Aung, Isabelle Boucher

It is important for socially assistive robots to be able to recognize when a user needs and wants help. Such robots need to be able to recognize human needs in a real-time manner s…

A Knowledge Driven Approach to Adaptive Assistance Using Preference Reasoning and Explanation

Jason R. Wilson, Leilani Gilpin, Irina Rabkina

There is a need for socially assistive robots (SARs) to provide transparency in their behavior by explaining their reasoning. Additionally, the reasoning and explanation should rep…

Developing Computational Models of Social Assistance to Guide Socially Assistive Robots

Jason R. Wilson, Seongsik Kim, Ulyana Kurylo +2

While there are many examples in which robots provide social assistance, a lack of theory on how the robots should decide how to assist impedes progress in realizing these technolo…
