Human Autonomy as a Design Principle for Socially Assistive Robots

Jason R. Wilson

High levels of robot autonomy are a common goal, but there is a significant risk that the greater the autonomy of the robot the lesser the autonomy of the human working with the ro…

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…

Supporting User Autonomy with Multimodal Fusion to Detect when a User Needs Assistance from a Social Robot

Alex Reneau, Jason R. Wilson

It is crucial for any assistive robot to prioritize the autonomy of the user. For a robot working in a task setting to effectively maintain a user's autonomy it must provide timely…

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…

Proceedings of the Workshop on Social Robots in Therapy: Focusing on Autonomy and Ethical Challenges

Pablo G. Esteban, Daniel Hernández García, Hee Rin Lee +35

Robot-Assisted Therapy (RAT) has successfully been used in HRI research by including social robots in health-care interventions by virtue of their ability to engage human users bot…
