HRI and bacterial infection

Phosphorylation of eIF2α by its kinases is a stress response universally conserved among the eukaryota. Previously, we reported that the eIF2α kinases Heme Regulator Inhibitor (HRI) and Protein Kinase R (PKR) control distinct activities of diverse bacterial pathogens. Specifically for Listeria monocytogenes, it was shown that in HRIdeficient cells there was a reduction in the translocation of t...

Intelligent Robotics HRI Recap

An investigation is conducted regarding embodiment (in the context of the paper embodiment is an intelligent agent present in real world) and it’s effect on tutoring behaviour as opposed to nonembodied agents. Experiment consisted of cup stacking task that had to be taught to a learner present in either of four conditions: 1) simulation w/o head movements (only eyes); 2) simulation w/head movem...

Survivor Buddy Simulation for HRI

This paper extends the Survivor Buddy simulation in the Search and Rescue Game Environment (SARGE) through the addition of two-way audio communication and a specialized search and rescue multiplayer environment in order to support multi-person human-robot interaction studies. The multiplayer that was created through this project allows one person to be the survivor and another to control the ro...
