Linda Spaa, van der , "LEARNING HUMAN PREFERENCES FOR PHYSICAL HUMAN-ROBOT COOPERATION", TU Delft, 2024.
AbstractPHYSICAL human-robot cooperation (pHRC) has the potential to combine human and robot strengths in a team that can achieve more than a human and a robot working on the task separately. However, how much of the potential can be realized depends on the quality of cooperation, in which awareness of the partner’s intention and preferences plays an important role. Preferences tend to be highly personal, and additionally de- pend on the cooperation...
Ebubechukwu Ike, Johane Takeuchi, Antonello Ceravola, Frank Joublin , "Dialogue You Can Trust: Human and AI Perspectives on Generated Conversations", ArXiv, 2024.
AbstractAs dialogue systems and chatbots increasingly integrate into everyday interactions, the need for efficient and accurate evaluation methods becomes paramount. This study explores the comparative performance of human and AI assessments across a range of dialogue scenarios, focusing on seven key performance indicators (KPIs): Coherence, Innovation, Concreteness, Goal Contribution, Commonsense Contradiction, Incorrect Fact, and Redundancy. Utilizing ...
Gan Ruan , "Knowledge Transfer in Dynamic Multi-objective Optimization", University of Birmingham, 2024.
AbstractDynamic multi-objective optimization problems (DMOPs) are optimization problems possessing multiple conflicting objectives varying with time. This type of problem widely exists in the real world, such as controlling, resource allocation and scheduling problems. Knowledge transfer, a methodology inspired by the machine learning community, has been recently used for solving DMOPs, since it can transfer useful information from solving one problem in...

AbstractMediators aim to shape group dynamics in various ways, such as improving trust and cohesion, balancing participation, and promoting constructive conflict resolution. Technological systems used to mediate human-human interactions must be able to continuously assess the state of the interaction and generate appropriate actions. To this end, an understanding of the collective affective state of the group is needed in order to produce meaningful acti...
Zhenpeng Shi, Nikolay Matyunin, Kalman György Graffi, David Starobinski , "Uncovering CWE-CVE-CPE Relations with Threat Knowledge Graphs", ACM Transactions on Privacy and Security (TOPS), 2024.
AbstractSecurity assessment relies on public information on products, vulnerabilities and weaknesses. So far, databases in these categories have rarely been analyzed in combination. Yet, doing so could help predict unreported vulnerabilities and identify common threat patterns. In this paper, we propose a methodology for producing and optimizing a knowledge graph that aggregates knowledge from common threat databases (CPE, CVE, and CWE). We apply the thr...

AbstractInteractions between humans and automated vehicles (AVs) will become increasingly common in future traffic. Cooperative behavior enables comfortable and efficient resolutions of such interactions through joint actions. Thus, AVs need the ability to communicate their intention and planned behavior to outside road users to facilitate cooperation among the interaction partners. Many recent studies suggest external human-machine-interfaces (eHMIs) as...

Jihong Zhu, Michael Gienger, Giovanni Franzese, Jens Kober , "Do You Need a Hand? – An Interactive Robotic Dressing Assistance Scheme", IEEE Transactions on Robotics, 2024.
AbstractDeveloping physically assistive robots capable of dressing assistance has the potential to significantly improve the lives of the elderly and disabled population. However, most robotics dressing strategies used a single robot only, which greatly limited the performance of the dressing assistance. In fact, both arms are usually required when healthcare professionals perform the task. Inspired by them, we propose a bimanual cooperative schem...
