We developed two sets of sound models. The first set was made by two sound models, a sawtooth-based one and another based on feedback chains, for investigating how the perception of synthesized robot sounds would depend on their design complexity. We implemented the second set of sound models for probing the “materiality” of sound made by a robot in motion. This set consisted of a sound synthesis based on an engine highlighting the robot’s internal mechanisms, a metallic sound synthesis highlighting the robot’s typical appearance, and a whoosh sound synthesis highlighting the movement. We conducted three studies. The first study explores how the first set of sound models can influence the perception of expressive gestures of a Pepper robot through an online survey. In the second study, we carried out an experiment in a museum installation with a Pepper robot presented in two scenarios: (1) while welcoming patrons into a restaurant and (2) while providing information to visitors in a shopping center. Finally, in the third study, we conducted an online survey with stimuli similar to those used in the second study. Our findings suggest that participants preferred more complex sound models for the sonification of robot movements. Concerning the materiality, participants liked better subtle sounds that blend well with the ambient sound (i.e., less distracting) and soundscapes in which sound sources can be identified. Also, sound preferences varied depending on the context in which participants experienced the robot-generated sounds (e.g., as a live museum installation vs. an online display).","PeriodicalId":36515,"journal":{"name":"ACM Transactions on Human-Robot Interaction","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2023-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91362764","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A common assumption in affective robotics is that emotions are categorical brain-body states that can be confidently modeled. But if emotions are constructed, then they are interpretive, ambiguous, and specific to an individual’s unique experience. Constructivist views of emotion pose several challenges to affective robotics: first, it calls into question the validity of attempting to obtain objective measures of emotion through rating scales or biometrics. Second, ambiguous subjective data poses a challenge to computational systems that need structured and definite data to operate. How can a constructivist view of emotion be rectified with these challenges? In this article, we look to psychotherapy for ontological, epistemic, and methodological guidance. These fields (1) already understand emotions to be intrinsically embodied, relative, and metaphorical and (2) have built up substantial knowledge informed by everyday practice. It is our hope that by using interpretive methods inspired by therapeutic approaches, HRI researchers will be able to focus on the practicalities of designing effective embodied emotional interactions.","PeriodicalId":36515,"journal":{"name":"ACM Transactions on Human-Robot Interaction","volume":"45 1","pages":"1 - 22"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2023-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86531150","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The \"Hospiano\" robot is a prototype developed with the goal of making music accessible to all, regardless of physical ability. The robot acts as a pianist and can be placed in hospital lobbies and wards, playing the piano in response to the gestures and facial expressions of patients (i.e. head movement, eye and mouth movement, and proximity). It has three main modes of operation: \"Robot Pianist mode\", in which it plays pre-existing songs; \"Play Along mode\", which allows anyone to interact with the music; and \"Composer mode\", which allows patients to create their own music. The software that controls the prototype's actions runs on the Robot Operating System (ROS). It has been proven that humans and robots can interact fluently via a robot's vision, which opens up a wide range of possibilities for further interactions between these logical machines and more emotive beings like humans, resulting in an improvement in the quality of life of people who use it, increased inclusivity, and a better world for future generations to live in.","PeriodicalId":36515,"journal":{"name":"ACM Transactions on Human-Robot Interaction","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90366005","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, it is challenging to handcraft the behavior of social robots to achieve this objective. One promising approach is for the robot to learn from human teachers. This paper reports the findings of an empirical test to determine the optimal experiment condition for a robot to learn verbal and nonverbal strategies to facilitate a multi-party interaction. First, the modified L8 Orthogonal Array (OA) is used to design a fractional factorial experiment condition using factors like the type of human facilitator, group size and stimulus type. The response of OA is the harmony state explicitly defined using the speech turn-taking between speakers and represented using metrics extracted from the first order Markov transition matrix. Analyses of Main Effects and ANOVA suggest the type of human facilitator and group size are significant factors affecting the harmony state. Therefore, we propose the optimal experiment condition to train a facilitator robot using high school teachers as human teachers and group size larger than four participants.","PeriodicalId":36515,"journal":{"name":"ACM Transactions on Human-Robot Interaction","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89012519","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
