Social behaviour as an emergent property of embodied curiosity: a robotics perspective.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences
Social interaction is an extremely complex yet vital component in daily life. We present a bottom-up approach for the emergence of social behaviours from the interaction of the curiosity drive, i.e. the intrinsic motivation to learn as much as possib...

Imagine how to behave: the influence of imagined contact on human-robot interaction.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences
Imagined contact (IC), that is, mentally simulating an interaction with an outgroup member, reduces negative attitudes towards outgroup members, increases contact intentions, and reduces intergroup anxiety in human-human intergroup context. Our exper...

Drawing parallels in human-other interactions: a trans-disciplinary approach to developing human-robot interaction methodologies.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences
This opinion paper discusses how human-robot interaction (HRI) methodologies can be robustly developed by drawing on insights from fields outside of HRI that explore human-other interactions. The paper presents a framework that draws parallels betwee...

In natural interaction with embodied robots, we prefer it when they follow our gaze: a gaze-contingent mobile eyetracking study.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences
Initiating joint attention by leading someone's gaze is a rewarding experience which facilitates social interaction. Here, we investigate this experience of leading an agent's gaze while applying a more realistic paradigm than traditional screen-base...

Brain stimulation to left prefrontal cortex modulates attentional orienting to gaze cues.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences
In social interactions, we rely on non-verbal cues like gaze direction to understand the behaviour of others. How we react to these cues is determined by the degree to which we believe that they originate from an entity with a mind capable of having ...

A neurocognitive investigation of the impact of socializing with a robot on empathy for pain.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences
To what extent can humans form social relationships with robots? In the present study, we combined functional neuroimaging with a robot socializing intervention to probe the flexibility of empathy, a core component of social relationships, towards ro...

Brain activity during reciprocal social interaction investigated using conversational robots as control condition.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences
We present a novel functional magnetic resonance imaging paradigm for second-person neuroscience. The paradigm compares a human social interaction (human-human interaction, HHI) to an interaction with a conversational robot (human-robot interaction, ...

Adaptation, Artificial Intelligence, and Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation.

PM & R : the journal of injury, function, and rehabilitation
Adaptation, cooperation, and trust are at the center of rehabilitation. Artificial intelligence and robots enhance adaptation with guidance for movement, cues for sensation, control of environment, and improved situational awareness. That said, how d...

Fast social-like learning of complex behaviors based on motor motifs.

Physical review. E
Social learning is widely observed in many species. Less experienced agents copy successful behaviors exhibited by more experienced individuals. Nevertheless, the dynamical mechanisms behind this process remain largely unknown. Here we assume that a ...
