Computational Human Robot Interaction
We present a systematic survey of computational research in humanrobotinteraction HRI over the past decade. Computational HRI isthe subset of the field that is specifically concerned with the algorithms,techniques, models, and frameworks necessary to build roboticsystems that engage in social interactions with humans. Within thefield of robotics, HRI poses distinct computational challenges in eachof the traditional core research areas: perception, manipulation, planning,task execution, navigation, and learning. These challenges areaddressed by the research literature surveyed here. We surveyed twelvepublication venues and include work that tackles computational HRIchallenges, categorized into eight topics: a perceiving humans andtheir activities; b generating and understanding verbal expression;c generating and understanding non verbal behaviors; d modeling,expressing, and understanding emotional states; e recognizing andconveying intentional action; f collaborating with humans; g navigatingwith and around humans; and h learning from humans in asocial manner. For each topic, we suggest promising future researchareas.
