Robot Programming by Demonstration (RbD) covers methods by which a robot learns new skills through human guidance. In this work, we take the perspective that the role of the tea...
— We are currently investigating the use of rhythm and synchrony in human-robot interaction. Specifically, we are developing techniques for the perception and generation of soci...
— For a robot to understand a scene, we have to infer and extract meaningful information from vision sensor data. Since scene understanding consists in recognizing several visual...
— Intuitive human-robot cooperation presents a challenge to robots since it demands of them a high level of understanding of the human user. Our approach is to estimate the human...
— We address in this paper the problem of the autonomous online learning of a sensory-motor task, demonstrated by an operator guiding the robot. For the last decade, we have deve...
–This paper presents a novel affect-sensitive human-robot interaction framework for rehabilitation of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) where the robot can detect the ...

— We propose a novel design of artificial robot ear for sound direction estimation using measured two outputs only. The spectral features in head-related transfer functions and i...
— We investigate modeling and recognition of arm manipulation actions of different levels of complexity. To model the process, we are using a combination of discriminative suppor...
