Collaboration in human-robot teams

by Guy Hoffman, Cynthia Breazeal - In Proc. of the AIAA 1st Intelligent Systems Technical Conference , 2004
"... Many new applications for robots require them to work alongside people as capable members of human-robot teams. These include—in the long term—robots for homes, hospitals, and offices, but already exist in more advanced settings, such as space exploration. The work reported in this paper is part of ..."

Planning for Human-Robot Teaming

by Kartik Talamadupula, Subbarao Kambhampati, Paul Schermerhorn, J. Benton, Matthias Scheutz
"... One of the most important applications of planning technology has been – and continues to be – guiding robotic agents in an autonomous fashion through complex problem scenarios. Increasingly, real-world scenarios are evolving in a way that includes humans as actors in the loop along with the robot a ..."

and the planning system. These humans are stakeholders whose roles may vary between that of a commander or a system or domain expert; the one common thread is that together with the robot, they form a team that shares common goals. In this paper, we consider challenges posed by such humanrobot teaming scenarios

Human-Robot Teaming

by Terrance M. Tierneya, William J. Protzmanb
"... This presentation will provide program information, goals and objectives of the Technology for Human-Robot Interactions in Soldier-Robot Teaming (HRI) Army Technology Objective (ATO). The intent of this program is to develop and demonstrate an intelligent scaleable interface for mounted and dismount ..."

Discussion of Challenges for User Interfaces in Human-Robot Teams

by unknown authors
"... Abstract—This paper describes the challenges for user interfaces in human-robot teams and elaborates requirements considering the different roles that human can take over in such teams. The implementation of various test interfaces and observations from experiments support the claimed requirements. ..."

EVALUATING SITUATION AWARENESS IN HUMAN-ROBOT TEAMS

by E. De Visser, R. Parasuraman, A. Freedy, E. Freedy, G. Weltman
"... New methodologies and quantitative measurements for evaluating human-robot team performance must be developed to achieve effective coordination between teams of humans and unmanned vehicles. The Mixed Initiative Team Performance Assessment System (MITPAS) provides such a comprehensive measurement me ..."

Human-Robot Teaming for Search and Rescue

by Illah R. Nourbakhsh, Katia Sycara, Mary Koes, Mark Yong, Michael Lewis, Steve Burion , 2005
"... The program is also researching systemlevel design, evaluation, and refinement of USAR rescue architectures that include teams of sensorladen robots and human rescuers. Here, we present highlights from our research, which include our multiagent system (MAS) infrastructure, our simulation environment ..."

Planning for human-robot teaming in open worlds

by Kartik Talamadupula, J. Benton, Subbarao Kambhampati, Paul Schermerhorn, Matthias Scheutz - ACM Transactions on Intelligent Systems and Technology , 2010
"... As the number of applications for human-robot teaming continue to rise, there is an increasing need for planning technologies that can guide robots in such teaming scenarios. In this article, we focus on adapting planning technology to Urban Search And Rescue (USAR) with a human-robot team. We start ..."

Process and performance in human-robot teams

by Michael Lewis, Huadong Wang, Shih Yi Chien, Prasanna Velagapudi, Paul Scerri, Katia Sycara - Journal of Cognitive Engineering and Decision Making , 2011
"... AbstrAct: The authors are developing a theory for human control of robot teams based on considering how control difficulty grows with team size. Current work focuses on domains, such as foraging, in which robots perform largely independent tasks. Such tasks are particularly amenable to analysis beca ..."

Autonomy in Human-Robot Team Control

by Jijun Wang, Michael Lewis
"... Human control of multiple robots has been characterized by the average demand of single robots on human attention or the distribution of demands from multiple robots. When robots are allowed to cooperate autonomously, however, demands on the operator should be reduced by the amount previously requir ..."
