This potential is particularly relevant for children, who have proven receptive to interactions with social robots. To reach learning and therapeutic goals, a number of issues need to be investigated, notably the design of an effective child-robot interaction (cHRI) to ensure the child remains engaged in the relationship and that educational goals are met. Typically, current cHRI research experiments focus on a single type of interaction activity (e.g. a game). However, these can suffer from a lack of adaptation to the child, or from an increasingly repetitive nature of the activity and interaction. In this paper, we motivate and propose a practicable solution to this issue: an adaptive robot able to switch between multiple activities within single interactions. We describe a system that embodies this idea, and present a case study in which diabetic children collaboratively learn with the robot about various aspects of managing their condition. We demonstrate the ability of our system to induce a varied interaction and show the potential of this approach both as an educational tool and as a research method for long-term cHRI.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;a href=&quot;https://dl.acm.org/doi/abs/10.5898/JHRI.5.1.Coninx&quot;&gt;Download&lt;/a&gt; (Open Access)</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kruijff-Korbayová, Ivana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oleari, Elettra</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pozzi, Clara</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sacchitelli, Francesca</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bagherzadhalimi, Anahita</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bellini, Sara</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kiefer, Bernd</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Racioppa, Stefania</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Coninx, Alexandre</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Paul E.

We evaluated the perception of the robot at a summer camp where diabetic children aged 10-14 experienced the robot in group interactions. Children in the intervention condition additionally interacted with it also individually, in one-to-one sessions featuring several game-like activities. These children perceived the robot significantly more as a friend than those in the control group. They also readily engaged with it in dialogues about their habits related to healthy lifestyle as well as personal experiences concerning diabetes. This indicates that the one-on-one interactions added a special quality to the relationship of the children with the robot.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;a href=&quot;https://mheerink.home.xs4all.nl/pdf/ProceedingsNF2015-3.pdf&quot;&gt;Download full proceedings&lt;/a&gt; (PDF)</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sue Attwood</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lola Cañamero</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">René te Boekhorst</style></author></authors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pietro Liò</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Orazio Miglino</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Giuseppe Nicosia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stefano Nolfi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mario Pavone</style></author></secondary-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SimianWorld – A Study of Social Organisation Using an Artificial Life Model</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Advances in Artificial Life, ECAL 2013</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.mitpressjournals.org/doi/abs/10.1162/978-0-262-31709-2-ch090</style></url></web-urls></urls><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MIT Press</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Taormina, Italy</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">633–640</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9780262317092</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">In studies of social behaviour it is commonly assumed that individual complexity is the origin of intricate social interactions. In primates for example, social complexity is attributed to their intelligence and it is argued by many that the cognitive capacity of primates are especially manifest in the way they regulate their social relationships. Whereas the complex societies of non-human primates are considered to be as a direct result of their cognitive abilities this assumption is not made about social insects. In the absence of certain cognitive abilities their complex societies and structurally sophisticated nests are thought to arise from self-organisation. Since it is unlikely that cognitive capacities are all-or-nothing, usually integrating a range of mechanisms, it is possible that different species use similar cognitive mechanisms resulting in different behavioural outcomes.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mitpressjournals.org/doi/abs/10.1162/978-0-262-31709-2-ch090&quot;&gt;Download&lt;/a&gt; (Open Access)</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nalin, Marco</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Baroni, Ilaria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kruijff-Korbayová, Ivana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lola Cañamero</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lewis, Matthew</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aryel Beck</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cuayáhuitl, Heriberto</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alberto Sanna</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Children's Adaptation in Multi-session Interaction with a Humanoid Robot</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012 IEEE RO-MAN: The 21st IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/6343778/</style></url></web-urls></urls><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">IEEE</style></publisher><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">351–357</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This work presents preliminary observations from a study of children (N=19, age 5–12) interacting in multiple sessions with a humanoid robot in a scenario involving game activities. The main purpose of the study was to see how their perception of the robot, their engagement, and their enjoyment of the robot as a companion evolve across multiple interactions, separated by one-two weeks. However, an interesting phenomenon was observed during the experiment: most of the children soon adapted to the behaviors of the robot, in terms of speech timing, speed and tone, verbal input formulation, nodding, gestures, etc. We describe the experimental setup and the system, and our observations and preliminary analysis results, which open interesting questions for further research.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;a href=&quot;https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/6343778&quot;&gt;Download&lt;/a&gt;</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tony Belpaeme</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Paul E.

The Adaptive Strategies for Sustainable Long-Term Social Interaction (ALIZ-E) project focuses on the design of long-term, adaptive social interaction between robots and child users in real-world settings. In this paper, we report on the iterative approach taken to scientific and technical developments toward this goal: advancing individual technical competencies and integrating them to form an autonomous robotic system for evaluation “in the wild.” The first evaluation iterations have shown the potential of this methodology in terms of adaptation of the robot to the interactant and the resulting influences on engagement. This sets the foundation for an ongoing research program that seeks to develop technologies for social robot companions.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;a href=&quot;https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.5555/3109688.3109691&quot;&gt;Download&lt;/a&gt; (Open Access)</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Paul E.

However, the theory and practice of long-term child-robot interaction is currently an underdeveloped area of research. This paper introduces an approach that integrates multiple functional aspects necessary to implement temporally extended human-robot interaction in the setting of a paediatric ward. We present our methodology for the implementation of a companion robot which will be used to support young patients in hospital as they learn to manage a lifelong metabolic disorder (diabetes). The robot will interact with patients over an extended period of time. The necessary functional aspects are identified and introduced, and a review of the technical challenges involved is presented.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.researchgate.net/publication/228470784_Long-term_human-robot_interaction_with_young_users&quot;&gt;Downlaod&lt;/a&gt;</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">John C Murray</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lola Cañamero</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kim A.

We also investigate and discuss the importance of emotion expression in socially interactive situations involving human robot interaction (HRI), and show the importance of utilising emotion expression when dealing with interactive robots, that are to learn and develop in socially situated environments. We discuss early expressional development and the function of emotion in communication in humans and how this can improve HRI communications. Finally we provide experimental results showing how emotion-rich interaction via emotion expression can affect the HRI process by providing additional information.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pichler, Peter-Paul</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lola Cañamero</style></author></authors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Seth Bullock</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jason Noble</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Richard A.

However, these model ecosystems typically pre-specify a discrete set of possible action primitives the agents can perform. We think that this also constrains the evolutionary process with the modellers preconceptions of what possible solutions could be. Therefore, we propose an ecosystem model to evolve complete agents where all higher-level behavior results strictly from the interplay between extremely simple components and where no ‘behavior primitives’ are defined. On the basis of four distinct survival strategies we show that such primitives are not necessary to evolve behavioral diversity even in a simple and homogeneous environment.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oros, Nicolas</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Volker Steuber</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Davey, Neil</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lola Cañamero</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Roderick G Adams</style></author></authors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Seth Bullock</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jason Noble</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Richard A.

The first goal of this research was to create a simulated agent that could react and stay within a region where there were two different overlapping chemicals having uniform concentrations. The agent was controlled by a spiking neural network that encoded sensory information using temporal coincidence of incoming spikes when the level of chemical concentration was low, and as firing rates at high level of concentration. With this architecture, we could study synchronization of firing in a simple manner and see its effect on the agent’s behaviour. The next experiment we did was to use a more realistic model by having an environment composed of concentration gradients and by adding input current noise to all neurons. We used a realistic model of diffusive noise and showed that it could improve the agent’s behaviour if used within a certain range. Therefore, an agent with neuronal noise was better able to stay within the chemical concentration than an agent without.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>19</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">M Simon</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">P Canet</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">R Soussignan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Philippe Gaussier</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lola Cañamero</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jacqueline Nadel</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Reconnaissance et résonance émotionnelle face à un humain et à un robot chez des enfants typiques et des enfants avec autisme de haut niveau</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bulletin scientifique de l’Arapi</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></year></dates><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Antoine Hiolle</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lola Cañamero</style></author></authors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Seth Bullock</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jason Noble</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Richard A.

We present here an experiment in which an autonomous robot explores its environment and tries to familiarize itself with the features available using a neural-network-based architecture. The lack of stability of its learning structures increases the arousal level of the robot, pushing the robot to look for comfort from its caretaker to reduce the arousal. In this paper, we studied how the behavior of the caretaker influences the course of the robot exploration and learning experience by providing certain amount of comfort during this exploration. We then draw some conclusions on how to use this architecture together with related work, to enhance the adaptability of autonomous robots development.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lola Cañamero</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Arnaud J Blanchard</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jacqueline Nadel</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Attachment Bonds for Human-Like Robots</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">International Journal of Humanoid Robotics</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2006</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.worldscientific.com/doi/abs/10.1142/S0219843606000771</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">301–320</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">If robots are to be truly integrated in humans' everyday environment, they cannot be simply (pre-)designed and directly taken &quot;off the shelf&quot; and embedded into a real-life setting. Also, technical excellence and human-like appearance and &quot;superficial&quot; traits of their behavior are not enough to make social robots trusted, believable, and accepted. Fuller and deeper integration into human environments would require that, like children, robots develop embedded in the social environment in which they will fulfill their roles. An important element to bootstrap and guide this integration is the establishment of affective bonds between the &quot;infant&quot; robot and the adults among whom it develops, from whom it learns, and who it will later have to look after. In this paper, we present a Perception–Action architecture and experiments to simulate imprinting — the establishment of strong attachment links with a &quot;caregiver&quot; — in a robot. Following recent theories, we do not consider imprinting as rigidly timed and irreversible, but as a more flexible phenomenon that allows for further adaptation as a result of reward-based learning through experience. After the initial imprinting, adaptation is achieved in the context of a history of &quot;affective&quot; interactions between the robot and a human, driven by &quot;distress&quot; and &quot;comfort&quot; responses in the robot.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jacqueline Nadel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">M Simon</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">P Canet</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">R Soussignan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">P Blancard</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lola Cañamero</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Philippe Gaussier</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Human Responses to an Expressive Robot</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proceedings of the Sixth International Workshop on Epigenetic Robotics</style></secondary-title><tertiary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lund University Cognitive Studies</style></tertiary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2006</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.lucs.lu.se/LUCS/128/Nadeletal.pdf</style></url></web-urls></urls><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lund University</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Paris, France</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">128</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">79–86</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">91-974741-6-9</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This paper reports the results of the first study comparing subjects' responses to robotic emotional facial displays and human emotional facial displays.
It describes step by step the building of believable emotional expressions in a robotic head, the problems raised by a comparative approach of robotic and human expressions, and the solutions found in order to ensure a valid comparison. Twenty adults and 15 children aged 3 were presented static (photos) and dynamic (2-D videoclips, or 3-D live) displays of emotional expressions presented by a robot or a person.
The study compares two dependent variables: emotional resonance (automatic facial feed-back during an emotional display) and emotion recognition (emotion labeling) according to partners (robot or person) and to the nature of the display (static or dynamic). Results for emotional resonance were similar with young children and with adults. Both groups resonated significantly more to dynamic displays than to static displays, be they robotic expressions or human expressions. In both groups, emotion recognition was easier for human expressions than for robotic ones.
Unlike children that recognized more easily emotional expressions dynamically displayed, adults scored higher with static displays thus reflecting a cognitive strategy independent from emotional resonance. Results are discussed in the perspective of the therapeutic use of this comparative approach with children with autism that are described as impaired in emotion sharing and communication.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal"

Our results show that the perception of displays related to affect greatly influences both the types of display produced and also the survival prospects of agents. Relative to agents that do not perceive rival agent internal state, affect perceivers prosper if the initial environment in which they reside provides numerous opportunities for interaction with other agents and resources. Conversely, where the initial environment with sparse resources does not allow for regular interaction, ability to perceive affect is not as facilitatory to survival. Furthermore, the agents evolve particular display strategies distorting the expression of affect and greatly influencing the proportion of affect perceiving to nonaffect perceiving agents over evolutionary time.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Robert Lowe</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lola Cañamero</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nehaniv, Chrystopher L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Daniel Polani</style></author></authors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Harald Schaub</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Frank Detje</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ulrike Brüggermann</style></author></secondary-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Strategies in the Evolution of Affect Related Displays and Recognition</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The Logic Of Artificial Life: Abstracting and Synthesizing the Principles of Living Systems; Proc. 6th German Workshop on Artificial Life 2004</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2004</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">IOS Press</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bamberg, Germany</style></pub-location><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A more realistic alternative to the game theoretic approach to measuring the behavioural success of animal display can be represented by affect related expression and perception The current paper investigates the ways in which agents can use evolved affect related displays to manipulate the behaviour of affect perceiving rival agents to their survival advantage.

Mo'K is intended to assist ontology developers in the exploratory process of defining the most suitable learning methods for a given task. To do so, it provides facilities for evaluation, comparison, characterization and elaboration of conceptual clustering methods. Also, the model underlying Mo'K permits a fine- grained definition of similarity measures and class construction operators, easing the tasks of method instantiation and configuration. This paper presents some experimental results that illustrate the suitability of the model to help characterize and assess the performance of different methods that learn semantic classes from parsed corpora.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>10</ref-type><contributors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">D Cañamero</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chisato Numaoka</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Paolo Petta</style></author></secondary-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Grounding Emotions in Adaptive Systems.
