ABSTRACT
Social robots are increasingly applied in assistive settings where they interact with human users to support them in their daily life. There, abilities for a robust and reliable social interaction are required, especially for robots that interact autonomously with humans. Apart from challenges regarding safety and trust, the complexity and difficulty of attaining mutual understanding, engagement or assistance in social interactions that comprise spoken languages and non-verbal behaviors need to be taken into account. In addition, different users or user groups have inter-individual differences with respect to their personal preferences, skills and limitations. This makes it more difficult to develop reliable and understandable robots that work well in different situations or for different users.

Towards Adaptive Social Behavior Generation for Assistive Robots Using Reinforcement Learning
HRI '17: Proceedings of the 2017 ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot InteractionIn this paper we explore whether a social robot can learn, in and from a task-oriented interaction with a human user, how to employ different social behaviors to achieve interactional goals under specific situational circumstances. We present a ...
Vision-based adaptive assistance and haptic guidance for safe wheelchair corridor following
We devise a low-cost vision-based assistance scheme for wheelchair corridor navigation.Progressive assistance is activated if the wheelchair is in danger, as the user drives manually in a corridor.Natural image features that can be extracted robustly in ...
Controller design for human-robot interaction
Many robotics tasks require a robot to share the same workspace with humans. In such settings, it is important that the robot performs in such a way that does not cause distress to humans in the workspace. In this paper, we address the problem of ...
