ability of understanding and adapting to people’s mental models is a
key objective for enabling natural, efficient and successful human-robot
interaction (HRI), in particular in human-centered scenarios where
robots are expected to meet people’s social conventions. However, even
if theory of mind and mental models are largely investigated in
human-computer interactions, it is still unclear what level of others’
mental states a robot should be aware of in order to communicate with
people in a transparent and socially acceptable way. The ASIMOV workshop
will constitute a unique opportunity to gather roboticists and computer
scientists to discuss a variety of current and new approaches aiming at
endowing social robots with learning abilities, enhancing cognitive and
social abilities based on mutual understanding, mental model and Theory
of Mind.</p><h2 dir="ltr" style="margin:7pt 0px 6pt;font-weight:normal;font-size:16pt;border:1px solid rgb(0,114,161);background:rgb(0,114,161);color:rgb(255,255,255);padding:4pt 0pt 6pt 20pt;font-family:verdana,sans-serif;border-radius:4px">SCIENTIFIC CONTEXT</h2><p dir="ltr" style="margin:0px 0pt 12px 10pt;max-width:650pt;line-height:1.4;font-size:11pt;padding-bottom:5pt;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">Endowing
robots with learning and online adaptation abilities is a key objective
for enabling natural and efficient human-robot interaction, especially
in the areas of assistive, rehabilitation, and educational robotics. As
Isaac Asimov, the famous Russian-American science-fiction writer,
pointed out in one of his novels “The Complete Robot (1982)”, it is
fundamental for humans and robots to adapt to each other in order to
have a successful and efficient interaction. To this extent, one of the
critical challenges in human-robot interaction is to design robots with
learning abilities which would enable them to behave according to the
following three criteria: efficiency, acceptability and security. In
order for robots to fulfil these criteria, it is necessary for the robot
and the human to understand each other’s intentions, beliefs and
desires.</p><p dir="ltr" style="margin:0px 0pt 12px 10pt;max-width:650pt;line-height:1.4;font-size:11pt;padding-bottom:5pt;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">The
ability to interpret and adapt to users’ behaviour and mental states
could help in solving the mismatch existing between expectations of
robots (often elicited by the robot’s appearance) and their actual
capabilities and, therefore, enhance efficiency. Indeed, a possible
mismatch can lead to ambiguous perceptions and improper interpretation
of robot’s actions and intentions by negatively affecting the
interactions. Therefore, designing human-aware social interaction
paradigms allow robots to automatically detect and correct inaccurate
mental states held by users through adaptive behaviour.</p><p dir="ltr" style="margin:0px 0pt 12px 10pt;max-width:650pt;line-height:1.4;font-size:11pt;padding-bottom:5pt;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">Additionally,
recent research evidence that that robots’ acceptability increases when
the robot is able to understand and meet people’s expectations (i.e.,
their mental models) during HRI. By giving basic socio-cognitive skills
to robots, they can show contextually appropriate affective and social
signals in an intelligent and readable way. From the mutual
comprehension of mental states, an effective human-robot interaction can
emerge, suspending the disbelief of human partners, allowing trust,
partnership, and acceptability. </p><p dir="ltr" style="margin:0px 0pt 12px 10pt;max-width:650pt;line-height:1.4;font-size:11pt;padding-bottom:5pt;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">Despite
the recognized potential and usefulness of social robots for assistive,
educational and entertainment purposes, people are still wary while
interacting with them. In particular, their hesitations are connected to
different aspects of HRI, including ethical and psychological concerns,
and physical and security safety, such as privacy violation, physical
harms, etc.. In this direction, it is essential to take into
consideration the psychological and behavioural response of people who
are sharing the environments with robots, and design social robots’
behaviours that can proactively plan, manage and execute its goals, and
facilitate interaction at the same time.</p><p dir="ltr" style="margin:0px 0pt 12px 10pt;max-width:650pt;line-height:1.4;font-size:11pt;padding-bottom:5pt;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">In
tackling the above-mentioned challenges, this workshop aims to bring
together theories and practices that advance social cognition and user
awareness in HRI to enrich the mutual understanding between humans and
the robots. This is especially desirable for socially assistive robots
in the context of education, entertainment and especially in healthcare,
where the target user groups often include vulnerable people (e.g.,
elderly people or children with diseases compromising attentional or
emotional responses) and acceptability of the robots is of paramount
importance.</p><h2 dir="ltr" style="margin:7pt 0px 6pt;font-weight:normal;font-size:16pt;border:1px solid rgb(0,114,161);background:rgb(0,114,161);color:rgb(255,255,255);padding:4pt 0pt 6pt 20pt;font-family:verdana,sans-serif;border-radius:4px">OBJECTIVES</h2><p dir="ltr" style="margin:0px 0pt 12px 10pt;max-width:650pt;line-height:1.4;font-size:11pt;padding-bottom:5pt;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">The
