—Mobile robots that interact with humans in an intuitive way must be able to follow directions provided by humans in unconstrained natural language. In this work we investigate h...
Obtaining high-quality machine translations is still a long way off. A postediting phase is required to improve the output of a machine translation system. An alternative is the s...
Identifying verbally and non-verbally referred-to objects is an important aspect of human-robot interaction. Most importantly, it is essential to achieve a joint focus of attentio...
Recent work has shown the promise in using local-search “probes” as a basis for directing a backtracking-based refinement search. In this approach, the decision about the next...
