Designing and evaluating a social gaze-control system for a humanoid robot (2014)
Journal Article

This paper describes a context-dependent social gaze-control system implemented as part of a humanoid social robot. The system enables the robot to direct its gaze at multiple humans who are interacting with each other and with the robot. The attenti...

Task-based evaluation of context-sensitive referring expressions in human–robot dialogue (2014)
Journal Article

© 2013 Taylor & Francis. The standard referring-expression generation task involves creating stand-alone descriptions intended solely to distinguish a target object from its context. However, when an artificial system refers to objects in the cours... Read More about Task-based evaluation of context-sensitive referring expressions in human–robot dialogue.

Using Embodied Multimodal Fusion to Perform Supportive and Instructive Robot Roles in Human-Robot Interaction (2013)
Journal Article

We present a robot that is working with humans on a common construction task. In this kind of interaction, it is important that the robot can perform different roles in order to realise an efficient collaboration. For this, we introduce embodied mult...

Design principles for safety in human-robot interaction (2010)
Journal Article

The interaction of humans and robots has the potential to set new grounds in industrial applications as well as in service robotics because it combines the strengths of humans, such as flexibility and adaptability, and the strengths of robots, such a...
