Considering the effects of gender in child-robot interaction studies: comment on Srinivasan, et Al. (2013).

Perceptual and motor skills
Using a pretest-posttest design, Srinivasan, et al. (2013 ) found that a period of interaction between children and an Isobot humanoid robot improved performance on standardized measures of imitation, planning, and execution of motor behaviors. The a...

A robot's efficient demonstration cannot reduce 5- to 6-year-old children's over-imitation.

Journal of experimental child psychology
Children tend to imitate inefficient behaviors containing causally irrelevant actions-they over-imitate. Out-group members' efficient demonstration cannot reduce children's over-imitation of in-group members, due to their interpretation of irrelevant...

Modeling engagement in long-term, in-home socially assistive robot interventions for children with autism spectrum disorders.

Science robotics
Socially assistive robotics (SAR) has great potential to provide accessible, affordable, and personalized therapeutic interventions for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). However, human-robot interaction (HRI) methods are still limited in...

Domain Adaptation in Children Activity Recognition.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Among the major challenges in training predictive models in wireless health, is adapting them to new individuals or groups of people. This is not trivial largely due to possible differences in the distribution of data between a new individual in a re...
