Extensive experiments suggest that motor coordination among human participants may contribute to social affinity and emotional attachment, which has great potential in the clinical treatment of social disorders or schizophrenia. Mirror game…
Joint improvisation is observed to emerge spontaneously among humans performing joint action tasks, and has been associated with high levels of movement synchrony and enhanced sense of social bonding. Exploring the underlying cognitive and…
Watching others play is a key ingredient of digital games and an important aspect of games user research. However, spectatorship is not very popular in virtual reality, as such games strongly rely on one's feelings of presence. In other…
In the present paper, we introduce a new control architecture aimed at driving virtual humans in interaction with virtual environments, by motion capture. It brings decoupling of functionalities, and also of stability thanks to passivity.…
Extensive experiments in Human Movement Science suggest that solo motions are characterized by unique features that define the individuality or motor signature of people. While interacting with others, humans tend to spontaneously…
Serious games for health are designed with specific health objectives and are increasingly being used in mental health interventions. Leveraging sensor equipped handheld devices such as smartphones and smartwatches, these games can provide…
Mirror play (MP) is a well-accepted primal-dual multi-agent learning algorithm where all agents simultaneously implement mirror descent in a distributed fashion. The advantage of MP over vanilla gradient play lies in its usage of mirror…
Applications involving humans and robots working together are spreading nowadays. Alongside, modeling and control techniques that allow physical Human-Robot Interaction (pHRI) are widely investigated. To better understand its potential…
We investigate the impact of a novel method called "virtual mirroring" to promote employee self-reflection and impact customer satisfaction. The method is based on measuring communication patterns, through social network and semantic…
This paper presents an innovative pseudo-haptic model for weight simulation in virtual reality (VR) environments. By integrating visual feedback with voluntary exerted force through a passive haptic glove, the model creates haptic illusions…
This paper introduces a novel model-based adaptive shared control to allow for the identification and design challenge for shared-control systems, in which humans and automation share control tasks. The main challenge is the adaptive…
This tutorial presents cooperative and noncooperative game-theoretic frameworks for modeling, learning, and control in socio-technical systems, where human behavior, incentives, institutions, and social interactions are coupled with…
How dynamic interactions between nervous system regions in mammals performs online motor control remains an unsolved problem. In this paper we show that feedback control is a simple, yet powerful way to understand the neural dynamics of…
Guided cooperation allows intelligent agents with heterogeneous capabilities to work together by following a leader-follower type of interaction. However, the associated control problem becomes challenging when the leader agent does not…
Today there is a high variety of haptic devices capable of providing tactile feedback. Although most of existing designs are aimed at realistic simulation of the surface properties, their capabilities are limited in attempts of displaying…
Virtual Reality is used successfully to treat people for regular phobias. A new challenge is to develop Virtual Reality Exposure Training for social skills. Virtual actors in such systems have to show appropriate social behavior including…
In multiplayer cooperative video games, players traditionally use individual controllers, inferring others' actions through on-screen visuals and their own movements. This indirect understanding limits truly collaborative gameplay. Research…
Optimization with preference feedback is an active research area with many applications in engineering systems where humans play a central role, such as building control and autonomous vehicles. While most existing studies focus on…
Human-like agents are an increasingly important topic in games and beyond. Believable non-player characters enhance the gaming experience by improving immersion and providing entertainment. They also offer players the opportunity to engage…
There is a high demand for high-quality Non-Player Characters (NPCs) in video games. Hand-crafting their behavior is a labor intensive and error prone engineering process with limited controls exposed to the game designers. We propose to…
