Cooperative Solving of a Children’s Jigsaw Puzzle between Human and Robot: First Results
نویسندگان
چکیده
Intelligent human robot cooperation still is a challenging field of research. At the Institute of Process Control and Robotics at the University of Karlsruhe we intend to use an anthropomorphic robot to learn how to solve a children’s jigsaw puzzle together with a human tutor. Instead of choosing a straight forward engineer’s approach, we have decided to combine a psychologist’s and a computer scientist’s views; the first results are presented in this paper.

متن کاملGesture and Speech Input are Interlocking Pieces: The Development of Children's Jigsaw Puzzle Assembly Ability
Spatial reasoning ability is enhanced by spatial activities and spatial language. Spatial games (e.g., block building, assembling jigsaw puzzles) are often accompanied by spatial language, which, in turn, is often accompanied by co-speech gesture. Here we investigate the effects of spatial language and gesture in the context of puzzle play in improving preschool children’s puzzle assembly abili...
متن کاملAn Improved Heuristic-based Approach for Solving Square Jigsaw Puzzles
An algorithm for assembling square jigsaw puzzles is presented. We commence by introducing criteria that govern the selection of proper jigsaw puzzle solving method for a given application. Our algorithm uses the gray level profiles of border pixels for local matching of the puzzle pieces. Unlike the classical best-first search, the algorithm simultaneously locates the neighbors of a puzzle pie...
