  • Exploration of Pointing Forms in Customer–Shopkeeper Interactions

    Open Access•Yongqiang Jiang, Malcolm Doering et al.•ARTICLE•ACM Transactions on Human-Robot…•2026

    To investigate the use of different pointing forms in service scenarios, we collected the ShopPoint dataset, a skeleton-based dataset of pointing gestures from customer–shopkeeper interactions in a camera shop scenario. Thirteen participants took part in the data collection, including 3 shopkeepers with real-world customer service experience and 10 customers. We recorded 61 one-to-one role-played interactions. Coders annotated pointing gestures f…

  • Online Continual Learning for Automatic Error Prevention in Data-Driven HRI

    Joshua Ravishankar, Malcolm Doering et al.•ARTICLE•ACM Transactions on Human-Robot…•2026

    Data-driven social imitation learning is a minimally supervised approach to generating robot behaviors for human–robot interaction (HRI). However, like any learning-based approach, there are inherent challenges and potential errors. Existing strategies for error prevention in HRI predominantly rely on handcrafted methods and predefined design guidelines, with limited focus on learning-based approaches. In this article, we present an autonomous, o…

  • Data-Driven Imitation Learning for a Shopkeeper Robot with Periodically Changing Product Information

    Open Access•Malcolm Doering, Dražen Brščić et al.•ARTICLE•ACM Transactions on Human-Robot…•2021

    Data-driven imitation learning enables service robots to learn social interaction behaviors, but these systems cannot adapt after training to changes in the environment, such as changing products in a store. To solve this, a novel learning system that uses neural attention and approximate string matching to copy information from a product information database to its output is proposed. A camera shop interaction dataset was simulated for training/…

  • Curiosity Did Not Kill the Robot

    Open Access•Malcolm Doering, Phoebe Liu et al.•ARTICLE•ACM Transactions on Human-Robot…•2019•Cited by: 1•References: 7

    Learning from human interaction data is a promising approach for developing robot interaction logic, but behaviors learned only from offline data simply represent the most frequent interaction patterns in the training data, without any adaptation for individual differences. We developed a robot that incorporates both data-driven and interactive learning. Our robot first learns high-level dialog and spatial behavior patterns from offline examples …
