A Human Robot Interaction Framework for Robotic Motor Skill Learning

It is generally accepted in the field of human-robot interaction (HRI) that the role of a human teacher is critical for robot environmental adaptation. As such, the ability of a robot to adapt in a novel environment is based on the capabilities of the ...

This paper describes the design of a robot agent and associated learning algorithms to help children in handwriting acquisition. The main issue lies in how to program a robot to obtain human-like handwriting and then exploit it to teach children. We ...

Service robotics is currently a highly active research area in robotics, with enormous societal potential. Since service robots directly interact with people, finding “natural” and easy-to-use user interfaces is of fundamental importance. While past ...
