  1. 1. Embodying Politeness in Persuasive Humanoid Agents for Small Group Scenarios

    Författare :Sahba Zojaji; Christopher Peters; Tony Belpaeme; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; politeness; persuasiveness; small free-standing conversational groups; embodiment; embodied conversational agents; humanoid robots; virtual reality; immersiveness; human-agent interaction; social norms; multimodal expressive communication; artighet; övertalningsförmåga; små fristående samtalsgrupper; förkroppsligande; förkroppsligade samtalsagenter; humanoida robotar; virtuell verklighet; uppslukande; interaktion mellan människa och agent; sociala normer; multimodal uttrycksfull kommunikation;

    Sammanfattning : In both physical and virtual environments, small group interactions significantly shape our social experiences. Understanding and replicating situated group interactions with virtual agents or physical robots pose possibilities and challenges. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The language learning infant: Effects of speech input, vocal output, and feedback

    Författare :Lisa Gustavsson; Francisco Lacerda; Roger Moore; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; human; language; language acquisition; perception; production; humanoid; development; model; embodied system; speech signal processing; vocal tract morphology; acoustic; speech input; information processing; scaling; interaction; growth; infant; imitation; feedback; perceptual salience; modeling; Phonetics; Fonetik; Phonetics; fonetik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis studies the characteristics of the acoustic signal in speech, especially in speech directed to infants and in infant vocal development, to gain insight on essential aspects of speech processing, speech production and communicative interaction in early language acquisition. Three sets of experimental studies are presented in this thesis. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Evolutionary Humanoids for Embodied Artificial Intelligence

    Författare :Krister Wolff; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; linear genetic programming; bipedal locomotion; humanoid robotics; evolutionary algorithms;

    Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis aims at investigating the potential of a proposed methodology to create a cognitive control architecture for a humanoid robot. This architecture comprises three hierarchical layers: the reactive layer, the model building layer, and the reasoning layer. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Material perception and action : The role of material properties in object handling

    Författare :Kristin Ingvarsdottir; Kognitiv modellering; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; material perception; visual properties; motor planning; cognition; humanoid robot;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation is about visual perception of material properties and their role in preparation for object handling. Usually before an object is touched or picked-up we estimate its size and shape based on visual features to plan the grip size of our hand. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Applications of the Virtual Holonomic Constraints Approach : Analysis of Human Motor Patterns and Passive Walking Gaits

    Författare :Uwe Mettin; Anton Shiriaev; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Motion Planning; Humanoid Robots; Virtual Holonomic Constraints; Underactuated Mechanical Systems; Mechanical Springs; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Sammanfattning : In the field of robotics there is a great interest in developing strategies and algorithms to reproduce human-like behavior. One can think of human-like machines that may replace humans in hazardous working areas, perform enduring assembly tasks, serve the elderly and handicapped, etc. LÄS MER
