As robots advance from the pages and screens of science fiction into our homes, hospitals,
and schools, they are poised to take on increasingly social roles. Consequently, the need to …

Recently, the human-like behavior on the anthropomorphic robot manipulator is increasingly
accomplished by the kinematic model establishing the relationship of an anthropomorphic …

Advances in autonomy have the potential to reshape the landscape of the modern world.
Yet, research on human-machine interaction is needed to better understand the dynamic …

Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) repetition suppression, we explored
the selectivity of the human action perception system (APS), which consists of temporal …

Human-like behavior has emerged in the robotics area for improving the quality of Human-
Robot Interaction (HRI). For the human-like behavior imitation, the kinematic mapping …

Trust is an essential condition for accepting and relying on autonomous vehicles. One of the
well‐studied factors contributing to trust in automation systems is anthropomorphism. It is …

Recent advances in computer animation and robotics have lead to greater and greater
realism of human appearance to be obtained both on screen and in physical devices. A …

Although robots are becoming an ever-growing presence in society, we do not hold the
same expectations for robots as we do for humans, nor do we treat them the same. As such …

When a robot physically interacts with a human user, the requirements should be drastically
changed. The most important requirement is the safety of the human user in the sense that …

The perception of others' actions supports important skills such as communication, intention
understanding, and empathy. Are mechanisms of action processing in the human brain …
