Social-cue perception and mentalizing ability following traumatic brain injury: A human-robot interaction study.

Brain injury
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: Research studies and clinical observations of individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI) indicate marked deficits in mentalizing-perceiving social information and integrating it into judgements about the affective and mental sta...

Social Touch Gesture Recognition Using Convolutional Neural Network.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
Recently, social touch gesture recognition has been considered an important topic for touch modality, which can lead to highly efficient and realistic human-robot interaction. In this paper, a deep convolutional neural network is selected to implemen...

Dialogue Systems and Conversational Agents for Patients with Dementia: The Human-Robot Interaction.

Rejuvenation research
This study aimed to identify and describe the fundamental characteristics of spoken dialogue systems, and their role in supporting human-robot interaction and enabling the communication between socially assistive robots and patients with dementia. Fi...

Human-agent co-adaptation using error-related potentials.

Journal of neural engineering
OBJECTIVE: Error-related potentials (ErrP) have been proposed as an intuitive feedback signal decoded from the ongoing electroencephalogram (EEG) of a human observer for improving human-robot interaction (HRI). While recent demonstrations of this app...

Confidence in uncertainty: Error cost and commitment in early speech hypotheses.

PloS one
Interactions with artificial agents often lack immediacy because agents respond slower than their users expect. Automatic speech recognisers introduce this delay by analysing a user's utterance only after it has been completed. Early, uncertain hypot...

Do a robot's social skills and its objection discourage interactants from switching the robot off?

PloS one
Building on the notion that people respond to media as if they were real, switching off a robot which exhibits lifelike behavior implies an interesting situation. In an experimental lab study with a 2x2 between-subjects-design (N = 85), people were g...

Network analysis of empathy items from the interpersonal reactivity index in 1973 young adults.

Psychiatry research
The aim of this work is to perform a network analysis on the French adaptation of the interpersonal reactivity index (IRI) scale from a large Belgian database and provide additional information for the construct of empathy. We analyze a database of 1...

Scoping review on the use of socially assistive robot technology in elderly care.

BMJ open
OBJECTIVE: With an elderly population that is set to more than double by 2050 worldwide, there will be an increased demand for elderly care. This poses several impediments in the delivery of high-quality health and social care. Socially assistive rob...

Tracking Gaze and Visual Focus of Attention of People Involved in Social Interaction.

IEEE transactions on pattern analysis and machine intelligence
The visual focus of attention (VFOA) has been recognized as a prominent conversational cue. We are interested in estimating and tracking the VFOAs associated with multi-party social interactions. We note that in this type of situations the participan...

[Emotional robots in a nursing context : Empirical analysis of the present use and the effects of Paro and Pleo].

Zeitschrift fur Gerontologie und Geriatrie
BACKGROUND: It has been questioned by researchers in robotics as well in the general public to what extent companion-type robots can support the elderly with the fulfillment of their psychological and social needs. Although these robots have already ...
