Learning from Human-Robot Interaction
As robots enter human environments, they will need to interact with humans in a variety of roles: as students, teachers, collaborators and assistants. In these roles, robots will need to adapt to user’s individual preferences and capabilities, which may not be known ahead of the interaction. In this talk, I will describe approaches for robot learning during interaction, considering robots in different roles and in a variety of applications, including rehabilitation, collaboration in industrial settings, and in education and entertainment.
