In this white paper, we synthesize key points made during presentations and discussions from the AI-Assisted Decision Making for Conservation workshop, hosted by the Center for Research on Computation and Society at Harvard University on…

Robots are becoming increasingly integrated into our lives, assisting us in various tasks. To ensure effective collaboration between humans and robots, it is essential that they understand our intentions and anticipate our actions. In this…

Social robots and conversational agents are being explored as supports for wellbeing, goal-setting, and everyday self-regulation. While prior work highlights their potential to motivate and guide users, much of the evidence relies on…

In the rapidly evolving field of artificial intelligence (AI) agents, designing the agent's characteristics is crucial for shaping user experience. This workshop aims to establish a research community focused on AI agent persona design for…

As Generative AI systems increasingly engage in long-term, personal, and relational interactions, human-AI engagements are becoming significantly complex, making them more challenging to understand and govern. These Interactive AI systems…

A service robot can provide a smoother interaction experience if it has the ability to proactively detect whether a nearby user intends to interact, in order to adapt its behavior e.g. by explicitly showing that it is available to provide a…

Since the first AI-HRI held at the 2014 AAAI Fall Symposium Series, a lot of the presented research and discussions have emphasized how artificial intelligence (AI) developments can benefit human-robot interaction (HRI). This portrays HRI…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere, with many children having increased exposure to AI technologies in daily life. We aimed to understand middle school girls' (a group often excluded group in tech) perceptions and knowledge gaps…

This visual narrative is a first-person reflection of the previous pictorial at the 1st International Workshop on Explainable AI for the Arts (XAIxArts) at ACM Creativity and Cognition 2023. The initial workshop pictorial explored a…

Effective communication between AI and humans is essential for successful human-AI co-creation. However, many current co-creative AI systems lack effective communication, which limits their potential for collaboration. This paper presents…

We synthesize the reported results and recommendations of recent workshops and seminars that convened to discuss open questions within the important intersection of robotics, human-robot interaction, and spoken dialogue systems research.…

The aim of the workshop was to bring together experts working on open-domain dialogue research. In this speedily advancing research area many challenges still exist, such as learning information from conversations, and engaging in a…

The 10th Asia-Europe workshop in "Concepts in Information Theory and Communications" AEW10 was held in Boppard, Germany on June 21-23, 2017. It is based on a longstanding cooperation between Asian and European scientists. The first workshop…

How human-like do conversational robots need to look to enable long-term human-robot conversation? One essential aspect of long-term interaction is a human's ability to adapt to the varying degrees of a conversational partner's engagement…

The goal of this talk is to introduce a systematic research agenda which aims to understand the nature of interaction between humans and artificial conversational agents (CA) (henceforth humanmachine interaction, HMI). Specifically, we…

A common vision from science fiction is that robots will one day inhabit our physical spaces, sense the world as we do, assist our physical labours, and communicate with us through natural language. Here we study how to design artificial…
