Understanding Cultural Preferences for Social Robots: A Study in German and Arab Communities Oliver Korn, Neziha Akalin, Ruben Gouveia Abstract: This article presents a study of cultural differences affecting the acceptance and design preferences of social robots. Based on a survey with 794 participants from Germany and the three Arab countries of Egypt, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia, we discuss how ... DOI: https://doi.org/10.1145/3439717.
A Taxonomy of Social Errors in Human-Robot Interaction Leimin Tian, Sharon Oviatt Abstract: Robotic applications have entered various aspects of our lives, such as health care and educational services. In such Human-robot Interaction (HRI), trust and mutual adaption are established and maintained through a positive social relationship between ... DOI: https://doi.org/10.1145/3439720.
Investigation of Model for Initial Phase of Communication: Analysis of Humans Interaction by Robot Takafumi Sakamoto, Akihito Sudo, Yugo Takeuchi Abstract: We propose an agent model that determines its behavior from an internal state and a spatial relationship with a target to generate approaching and avoiding behaviors in encounter scenes. This model is based on the relationship with an opponent rather ... DOI: https://doi.org/10.1145/3439719.
A Minority of One against a Majority of Robots: Robots Cause Normative and Informational Conformity Nicole Salomons, Sarah Strohkorb Sebo, Meiying Qin, Brian Scassellati Abstract: Studies have shown that people conform their answers to match those of group members even when they believe the group’s answer to be wrong [2]. In this experiment, we test whether people conform to groups of robots and whether the robots cause ... DOI: https://doi.org/10.1145/3442627.
Mental Models of a Mobile Shoe Rack: Exploratory Findings from a Long-term In-the-Wild Study Matthew Rueben, Jeffrey Klow, Madelyn Duer, Eric Zimmerman, Jennifer Piacentini, Madison Browning, Frank J. Bernieri, Cindy M. Grimm, William D. Smart Abstract: Most people do not have direct access to knowledge about the inner workings of robots. Instead, they must develop mental models of the robot, a process that is not well understood. This article presents findings from a long-term, in-the-wild, ... DOI: https://doi.org/10.1145/3442620.
Automatic Speech Recognition for Indoor HRI Scenarios José Novoa, Rodrigo Mahu, Jorge Wuth, Juan Pablo Escudero, Josué Fredes, Néstor Becerra Yoma Abstract: This article presents a stand-alone automatic speech recognition system that accounts for listener movement, time-varying reverberation effects, environmental noise, and user position information for beamforming approaches in an HRI setting. We raise ... DOI: https://doi.org/10.1145/3442629.
Human-Collective Collaborative Target Selection Jason R. Cody, Karina A. Roundtree, Julie A. Adams Abstract: Robotic collectives are composed of hundreds or thousands of distributed robots using local sensing and communication that encompass characteristics of biological spatial swarms, colonies, or a combination of both. Interactions between the individual ... DOI: https://doi.org/10.1145/3442679.
