Effective communication between people and interactive robots would benefit if they have a
common ground of understanding. I discuss how the common ground principle of least …

Effective communication between a person and a robot may depend on whether there exists
a common ground of understanding between the two. In two experiments modelled after …

A robot's appearance and behavior provide cues to the robot's abilities and propensities. We
hypothesize that an appropriate match between a robot's social cues and its task improve …

A key assumption that drives much of HRI research is that human robot collaboration can be
improved by advancing a robot's capabilities. We argue that this assumption has potentially …

This work investigates the social and potentially moral relationships that humans have with
what we refer to as robotic others. Our investigation begins by responding to some recent …

This paper discusses the use of observational studies of human-robot social interaction in
open human-inhabited environments as a method for improving on the design and …

This paper presents the results of an experiment in human-robot social interaction. Its
purpose was to measure the impact of certain features and behaviors on people's …

This work presents our efforts towards building sociable autonomous robots that can work in
collaboration with people. In teamwork, it is critical that a robot partner be able to infer and …

I contemplate what I believe to be eight of the most challenging long-term problems in
human-robot communication. I interpret this phrase in a broad sense, including …
