Grounding Dynamic Spatial Relations for Embodied (Robot) Interaction
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a computational model of the processing of dynamic spatial relations occurring in an embodied robotic interaction setup. A complete system is introduced that allows autonomous robots to produce and interpret dynamic spatial phrases (in English) given an environment of moving objects. The model unites two separate research strands: computational cognitive semantics and on commonsense spatial representation and reasoning. The model for the first time demonstrates an integration of these different strands.

Grounding Relations in Action
This paper describes an attempt to ground the meaning of relational concepts in the sensory-motor dynamics resulting from our active interaction with the world. It is suggested that relations are encoded by executing or mentally simulating actions which are constrained by the environment and the specifics of our physical bodies. The virtues of the approach are demonstrated by a computational si...
متن کاملThe attentive robot companion: learning spatial information from observation and verbal interaction
This doctoral thesis investigates how a robot companion can gain a certain degree of situational awareness through observation and interaction with its surroundings. The focus lies on the representation of the spatial knowledge gathered constantly over time in an indoor environment. However, from the background of research on an interactive service robot, methods for deployment in inference and...
متن کاملAn Embodied Model for Sensorimotor Grounding and Grounding Transfer: Experiments With Epigenetic Robots
The grounding of symbols in computational models of linguistic abilities is one of the fundamental properties of psychologically plausible cognitive models. In this article, we present an embodied model for the grounding of language in action based on epigenetic robots. Epigenetic robotics is one of the new cognitive modeling approaches to modeling autonomous mental development. The robot model...
متن کاملEmbodied AI: Symbol Grounding through Imagination
This paper presents the principle of symbol grounding in robots. If a robot does not understand words, the robot cannot autonomously talk in the physical world. Understanding language symbols is a necessary condition for autonomous conversations. First, how humans understand language symbols is briefly studied. Humans’ symbol manipulation is based on imagination. Recent brain science shows that...
متن کاملInvestigating spatial relationships in human-robot interactions
Co-presence and embodied interaction are two fundamental characteristics of the command and control situation for service robots. This paper presents a study of spatial distances and orientation of a robot with respect to a human user in an experimental setting. Relevant concepts of spatiality from social interaction studies are introduced and related to Human-Robot Interaction (HRI). A Wizard-...
