Improving the Transparency of Robot Policies Using Demonstrations and Reward Communication
Demonstrations are a powerful way to teach robot decision-making to humans. Although informative demonstrations may be selected a priori using the machine teaching framework, student learning may deviate from the pre-selected curriculum in situ. This article thus explores augmenting a curriculum of pre-selected demonstrations with a closed-loop teaching framework inspired by principles from the education literature, such as the zone of proximal d…
Metrics for Robot Proficiency Self-assessment and Communication of Proficiency in Human-robot Teams
As development of robots with the ability to self-assess their proficiency for accomplishing tasks continues to grow, metrics are needed to evaluate the characteristics and performance of these robot systems and their interactions with humans. This proficiency-based human-robot interaction (HRI) use case can occur before, during, or after the performance of a task. This article presents a set of metrics for this use case, driven by a four-stage c…

Planning for Human–Robot Interaction in Socially Situated Tasks: The Impact of Representing Time and Intention
Social Robotics: 4Th International Conference, ICSR 2012, Chengdu, China, October 29-31, 2012. Proceedings
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Social Robotics, ICSR 2012, held in Chengdu, China, in October 2012. The 66 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on affecttive and cognitive sciences for socially interactive robots, situated interaction and embodiment, robots to assist the elderly and persons with disabi…
