Tutorial Session : Adaptive Vision for Human Robot Collaboration
[Wednesday, Sep 25 @ 09:00-15:30]
Hall : Alexandros II
- Introduction to Adaptive Vision for Human Robot Collaboration, Dimitri Ognibene.
Introduction to adaptive vision and brief description of bayesian and neural adaptive vision systems for human robot interaction. - Ecological perception: a computational model, Fabio Solari.
A computational model of visual perception for action tasks. How the modeled perception can inform the design of human-robot interaction systems. - Attention during social interaction, Tom Foulsham.
A review of work from experimental psychology which examines how humans pay attention to each other during conversation and other interactive situations. Studying this behaviour requires moving to more ecologically valid situations, and the results have implications for real and virtual interaction. - Introduction to the Projective Consciousness Model, David Rudrauf.
Emergent psychology-inspired cybernetic frameworks for integrating perception, imagination, emotion, social cognition and action in global optimization solutions for autonomous virtual and robotic agents. - Adaptive vision strategies to cope with complex environment under bounded resources, Guido De Croon.
Presentation of several adaptive vision strategies implemented enabling robots with limited computational resources to perform complex tasks. - Introduction to Egovision in Human Robot Interaction, Giovanni Farinella.
Egovision provides important information for human machine interaction and poses specific problems which require insights from both cognitive and machine learning side. - Ecological interaction in Virtual and Augmented Reality, Manuela Chessa.
Virtual and Augmented Reality (VR/AR) environments provide novel interaction modalities. On the one hand, we can devise natural and ecological techniques that mimic real-world situations, on the other hand we aim to understand whether VR/AR could enhance the cognitive performance in several fields of applications (e.g. rehabilitation or training tasks) by exploring novel paradigms of interaction. - Modelling and imitation attentional behaviours in complex tasks, Fiora Pirri.
Human visual exploration provides an important source of information to enable robot vision with task specific selection strategies necessary to deal with real world complexity. Techniques for recording and replication in robot of such strategies will be reviewed. - Attention Measurement Technologies for Situation Awareness and Motivation in Human-Robot Collaboration, Lucas Paletta.
The organisation of attention is investigated in the context of situation awareness, task coordination and mental processes. Classification of gaze behavior in reference with ecological semantics is applied to assistance in assembly as well as in health care.
