21. Embodying Politeness in Persuasive Humanoid Agents for Small Group Scenarios
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
22. Robots Beyond Borders : The Role of Social Robots in Spoken Second Language Practice
Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates how social robots can support adult second language (L2) learners in improving conversational skills. It recognizes the challenges inherent in adult L2 learning, including increased cognitive demands and the unique motivations driving adult education. LÄS MER
23. Sampling Based Motion Planning for Heavy Duty Autonomous Vehicles
Sammanfattning : The automotive industry is undergoing a revolution where the more traditional mechanical values are replaced by an ever increasing number of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) where advanced algorithms and software development are taking a bigger role. Increased safety, reduced emissions and the possibility of completely new business models are driving the development and most automotive companies have started projects that aim towards fully autonomous vehicles.
