Call for papers /

The aim of this Workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners who are working on various aspects of social robotics and adaptive interaction. The expected result of the workshop is a multidisciplinary research agenda that will inform future research directions and hopefully, forge some research collaborations. 
Topics (of interest) include (but are not limited to):

  • Personalized Human Robot Interaction (HRI)
  • User modeling in social HRI
  • Adaptation strategies for social  HRI
  • Affective interaction with robots
  • Machine learning for social robots
  • Natural Language Interaction with social robots
  • Emotion detection in social HRI
  • Social Assistive Robots
  • Social Robots in Education
  • Social HRI and Cognitive Impairments
  • Social Robots as Conversational Recommender Systems
  • Social Robots in the real world
  • User-centred Design in social HRI
  • Behavior Transparency for Social Robot
  • Empirical Evaluation of Social Robots

We believe that the IUI community may bring an important contribution to HRI and social robotics, and the current workshop proposal has been intended to this aim.
