External Photoreflective Tactile Sensing Based on Surface Deformation Measurement
Seiichi Yamamoto, Hiroki Ishizuka, Takumi Kawasetsu +6
We present a tactile sensing method enabled by the mechanical compliance of soft robots; an externally attachable photoreflective module reads surface deformation of silicone skin…
Decentralized Collective World Model for Emergent Communication and Coordination
Kentaro Nomura, Tatsuya Aoki, Tadahiro Taniguchi +1
We propose a fully decentralized multi-agent world model that enables both symbol emergence for communication and coordinated behavior through temporal extension of collective pred…
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…
Constructive Approach to Bidirectional Influence between Qualia Structure and Language Emergence
Tadahiro Taniguchi, Masafumi Oizumi, Noburo Saji +2
This perspective paper explores the bidirectional influence between language emergence and the relational structure of subjective experiences, termed qualia structure, and lays out…
Creative Agents: Simulating the Systems Model of Creativity with Generative Agents
Naomi Imasato, Kazuki Miyazawa, Takayuki Nagai +1
With the growing popularity of generative AI for images, video, and music, we witnessed models rapidly improve in quality and performance. However, not much attention is paid towar…
Predictive Reachability for Embodiment Selection in Mobile Manipulation Behaviors
Xiaoxu Feng, Takato Horii, Takayuki Nagai
Mobile manipulators require coordinated control between navigation and manipulation to accomplish tasks. Typically, coordinated mobile manipulation behaviors have base navigation t…
