Behavior-Based Early Language Development on a Humanoid Robot
نویسنده
چکیده
We are exploring the idea that early language acquisition could be better modelled on an artificial creature by considering the pragmatic aspect of natural language and of its development in human infants. We have implemented a system of vocal behaviors on Kismet in which “words” or concepts are behaviors in a competitive hierarchy. This paper reports on the framework, the vocal system’s architecture and algorithms, and some preliminary results from vocal label learning and concept formation.

Two groups of three male students (6-10 years old) with high-functioning autism participated in the current study. The humanoid robot NAO was used as a teacher assistant to teach English to the RALL group. Both RALL an...
متن کاملGenerating Co-speech Gestures for the Humanoid Robot NAO through BML
We develop an expressive gesture model based on GRETA platform to generate gestures accompanying speech for different embodiments. This paper presents our ongoing work on an implementation of this model on the humanoid robot NAO. From a specification of multimodal behaviors encoded with the behavior markup language, BML, the system synchronizes and realizes the verbal and nonverbal behaviors on...
متن کاملAnalytical Dynamic Modelling of Heel-off and Toe-off Motions for a 2D Humanoid Robot
The main objective of this article is to optimize the walking pattern of a 2D humanoid robot with heel-off and toe-off motions in order to minimize the energy consumption and maximize the stability margin. To this end, at first, a gait planning method is introduced based on the ankle and hip joint position trajectories. Then, using these trajectories and the inverse kinematics, the position tra...
