中文简介:
社会行为发生在这里和现在,但关系也取决于过去。当我们与他人互动时,我们会回应他们的行为方式,但我们也会将相互作用带入我们的社会历史,即我们之前对类似情境经历的总和。研究人员非常有兴趣了解人类和机器人如何在社交方面建立联系,但迄今为止,大部分工作都集中在逐分钟的互动行为上。 ALIZ-E项目的目的是探索人机交互如何从几分钟扩展到几天,从而在机器人和用户之间建立长期的建设性联系。 ALIZ-E项目将使用具体的认知机器人原理来创建能够在延长的,可能不连续的时间范围内维持与年轻用户的可信,任何深度社交关系的代理。 ALIZ-E项目将专门探索机器人 - 儿童互动,利用儿童对人造“生物”的开放和富有想象力的反应。有希望的未来应用包括为儿童用户开发教育伴侣机器人。 ALIZ-E项目将创新,将机器人带出实验室,并在米兰Ospedale San Raffaele的一个繁忙的儿科中与年轻的糖尿病患者一起进行健康教育。 ALIZ-E的一个核心科学目标是实施记忆系统,使机器人能够进行自我维持的互动。这要求他们应该有能力存储和回忆经验,从中学习并根据他们以前的经验调整他们的社会行为。分布式“开关板”模型,其中存储器提供其他认知模态相互作用的基板,将用于提供社会连贯的长期行为模式。机器人将通过动态环境中的非结构化交互在线学习,并且将集成多种不同的机器学习方法以促进此功能。云计算技术将用于为机器人自主交互提供车外计算资源。真实世界的社交互动取决于对他人行为做出适当的反应,因此ALIZ-E的另一个关键方面是关于理解人机交互中的情感。对于机器人来维持与孩子的社交关系,它必须能够解释交互的情感和情感内容,并且能够产生向孩子发出适当情感反应信号的行为。非言语行为将在机器人的社交曲目中发挥重要作用,但为了充分吸引用户,机器人将需要具备理解和产生语音的能力。言语和非言语行为必然与学习和记忆紧密结合,以支持机器人与儿童之间社会纽带的长期运作。 ALIZ-E将使用Aldebaran Nao机器人作为实施平台,Nao是一种小型,自主的人形机器人,已广泛应用于机器人足球。该项目由普利茅斯大学Tony Belpaeme博士协调,由7个学术合作伙伴组成,由普利茅斯大学,比利时布鲁塞尔自然大学,德国科学中心,德国科学中心,英国皇家学院,英国,赫特福德大学(英国),国家研究委员会 - 帕多瓦(意大利)和荷兰应用科学研究组织(荷兰)以及商业合作伙伴GOSTAI(法国)和Fondazione Centro San Raffaele del Monte Tabor(意大利)。根据欧盟委员会第7框架计划资助的ALIZ-E项目于2010年4月开始,将持续运行4。5年。
课程简介: Social behaviour happens in the here and now but relationships depend also on the past. When we interact with others we respond to how they behave but we also bring to the interaction our social history i.e. the sum total of our previous experiences of similar situations. Researchers are very interested to understand how humans and robots can relate socially but to date most of the work that carried out focuses on minute-by-minute interactive behaviour. The aim of the ALIZ-E project is to explore how human-robot interactions can be extended from minutes to the scale of days thus forging longer-term constructive bonds between robot and user. The ALIZ-E project will use the principles of embodied cognitive robotics to create agents capable of sustaining believable, any-depth social relationships with young users, over an extended, potentially discontinuous timeframe. The ALIZ-E project will specifically explore robot-child interaction capitalising on children’s open and imaginative responses to artificial ‘creatures’. Promising future applications include the development of educational companion robots for child users. The ALIZ-E project will innovate in taking robots out of the lab and putting them to the test in a health education role, with young diabetic patients, in a busy paediatric department at the Ospedale San Raffaele in Milan. One central scientific goal of ALIZ-E involves implementing memory systems to enable robots to engage in self-sustaining interactions. This requires that they should have the capacity to store and recall experiences, to learn from them and to adapt their social behaviour on the basis of their previous experiences. A distributed, “switch board” model, in which memory provides the substrate through which other cognitive modalities interact, will be used to provide socially coherent, long-term patterns of behaviour. The robots will learn online through unstructured interactions in dynamic environments and number of different machine learning approaches will be integrated to facilitate this functionality. Cloud computing techniques will be used to provide off-board computing resources for robots interacting autonomously. Real world social interaction hinges on making appropriate responses to the behaviour of others thus another key aspect of ALIZ-E concerns understanding emotion in human–robot interaction. For a robot to sustain a social relationship with a child, it must be able to interpret the emotional and affective content of the interaction and be able to produce behaviour signalling appropriate affective responses back to the child. Non-verbal behaviour will play an important part in the robots’ social repertoire but in order to engage the user fully the robots will require the capacity to understand and to produce speech. Verbal and non-verbal behaviour will necessarily be tightly coupled with learning and memory to support the longer-term functioning of a social bond between robot and child. ALIZ-E will use Aldebaran Nao robots as an implementation platform, the Nao is a small, autonomous, humanoid robot already widely used in robot soccer. The project, coordinated by Dr. Tony Belpaeme at the University of Plymouth, involves a consortium of 7 academic partners comprising The University of Plymouth, Vrije Universiteit Brussel (Belgium), Deutsches Forschungzentrum für Küustliche Intelligenz (Germany), Imperial College (UK), The University of Hertfordshire (UK), National Research Council - Padova (Italy) and The Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research (The Netherlands) plus commercial partners GOSTAI (France) and Fondazione Centro San Raffaele del Monte Tabor (Italy). Funded under the European Commission 7th Framework Programme the ALIZ-E project began in April 2010 and will run for a total of 4.5 years.
