Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential aspect distinguishing robotics from other areas of artificial intelligent is their interaction with humans and their surrounding environments. Spatial knowledge can be represented in various ways to increase the interaction between human users and mobile robots. One effective way is to describe the route verbally to the robot. This method can permit inexpert users to instruct their mobile robots, which understand spatial descriptions, to naturally perform complex tasks using succinct commands. We present a spatial language to describe route-based navigation tasks for a mobile robot. The instructions of this spatial language are implemented to provide an intuitive interface with which computer language naïve user can easily and naturally describe a navigation task to a mobile robot in any indoor environment. In our system, the instructions of the processed route are analyzed to generate a symbolic representation of the navigation task via the instruction interpreter. The resulting symbolic representation is used to generate a graphical representation of the route to supply the robot with the information about the route's environment and the relationships between the landmarks. It is also supplied to the robot motion planning stage as initial path estimation of route description and to ground the landmark symbols with their equivalent physical objects by using perceptual anchoring.

This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent advent of consumer grade Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) provides a new revolutionary and accessible way to control computers. BCI translate cognitive electroencephalography (EEG) signals into computer or robotic commands using specially built headsets. Capable of enhancing traditional interfaces that require interaction with a keyboard, mouse or touchscreen, BCI systems present tremendous opportunities to benefit various fields. Movement restricted users can especially benefit from these interfaces. In this thesis, we present a new way to interface a consumer-grade BCI solution to a mobile robot. A Red-Green-Blue-Depth (RGBD) camera is used to enhance the navigation of the robot with cognitive thoughts as commands. We introduce an interface presenting 3 different methods of robot-control: 1) a fully manual mode, where a cognitive signal is interpreted as a command, 2) a control-flow manual mode, reducing the likelihood of false-positive commands and 3) an automatic mode assisted by a remote RGBD camera. We study the application of this work by navigating the mobile robot on a planar surface using the different control methods while measuring the accuracy and usability of the system. Finally, we assess the newly designed interface's role in the design of future generation of BCI solutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A more natural interaction between humans and mobile robots can be achieved by bridging the gap between the format of spatial knowledge used by robots and the format of languages used by humans. This enables both sides to communicate by using shared knowledge. Spatial knowledge can be (re)presented in various ways to increase the interaction between humans and mobile robots. One effective way is to describe the route verbally to the robot. This method can permit computer language-naive users to instruct mobile robots, which understand spatial descriptions, to naturally perform complex tasks using succinct and intuitive commands. We present a spatial language to describe route-based navigation tasks for a mobile robot. The instructions of this spatial language are implemented to provide an intuitive interface with which novice users can easily and naturally describe a navigation task to a mobile robot in a miniature city or in any other in-door environment. In our system, the instructions of the processed route are analyzed to generate a symbolic representation via the instruction interpreter. The resulting symbolic representation is supplied to the robot motion planning stage as an initial path estimation of route description and it is also used to generate a topological map of the route's environment.

This book collates a set of prominent papers presented during a two-day conference on "Human Centered Robotic Systems" held on November 19-20, 2009, in Bielefeld University, Germany. The aim of the conference was to bring together researchers from the areas of robotics, computer science, psychology, linguistics, and biology who are all focusing on a shared goal of cognitive interaction. A survey of recent approaches, the current state-of-the-art, and possible future directions in this interdisciplinary field is presented. It provides practitioners and scientists with an up-to-date introduction to this dynamic field, with methods and solutions that are likely to significantly impact on our future lives.

Download or read book Cognitive Computing for Human Robot Interaction written by Mamta Mittal and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2021-08-13 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive Computing for Human-Robot Interaction: Principles and Practices explores the efforts that should ultimately enable society to take advantage of the often-heralded potential of robots to provide economical and sustainable computing applications. This book discusses each of these applications, presents working implementations, and combines coherent and original deliberative architecture for human–robot interactions (HRI). Supported by experimental results, it shows how explicit knowledge management promises to be instrumental in building richer and more natural HRI, by pushing for pervasive, human-level semantics within the robot's deliberative system for sustainable computing applications. This book will be of special interest to academics, postgraduate students, and researchers working in the area of artificial intelligence and machine learning. Key features: Introduces several new contributions to the representation and management of humans in autonomous robotic systems; Explores the potential of cognitive computing, robots, and HRI to generate a deeper understanding and to provide a better contribution from robots to society; Engages with the potential repercussions of cognitive computing and HRI in the real world. Introduces several new contributions to the representation and management of humans in an autonomous robotic system Explores cognitive computing, robots and HRI, presenting a more in-depth understanding to make robots better for society Gives a challenging approach to those several repercussions of cognitive computing and HRI in the actual global scenario
