I have recently suggested that the natural phenomenon of phenotypic plasticity provides a useful bioinspiration framework for making such systems more resilient in field conditions [1]. Phenotypic plasticity occurs when a single genotype produces a range of phenotypes (observable traits) in response to different environmental conditions. Consistent individual behavioural differences can result from such plasticity, and have been described as ‘personalities’. At the same time, in social animals, individual heterogeneity is increasingly recognised as functional for the group. We can exploit this functional heterogeneity as engineers trying to design field robot systems, and phenotypic plasticity can provide meaningful diversity ‘for free’, based on the local experience of agents. Personality axes such as bold–shy or social–asocial can be represented as single variables, with the advantage of being transparent and intuitive for human users, and predictable in their effects. For example, in a dangerous environment, robots may become more ‘shy’ and ‘social’ to stay closer together and out of harm’s way.","PeriodicalId":393014,"journal":{"name":"UKRAS20 Conference: \"Robots into the real world\" Proceedings","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123643778","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}

This requires the recognition of human intentions in order for the robot to anticipate behaviour and act accordingly. In this paper we propose a robot behavioural controller that incorporates both human behaviour and environment information as the basis of reasoning over the appropriate responses. Applied to Human-Robot Interaction in an agricultural context, we demonstrate in a series of simulations how this proposed method leads to the production of appropriate robot behaviour in a range of interaction scenarios. This work lays the foundation for the wider consideration of contextual intention recognition for the generation of interactive robot behaviour.","PeriodicalId":393014,"journal":{"name":"UKRAS20 Conference: \"Robots into the real world\" Proceedings","volume":"33 15","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141206548","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}

Being able to offer a reliable description of shape that can also translate directly into an high fidelity model of the shape, would be of high importance for a lot of applications such as phenotyping or agronomy. In this paper we report on our work on using spherical harmonics to offer efficient representation of strawberry shapes and we validate them by reconstructing the fruits. The reconstruction achieve extremely close results to the original shape (less than 1% deviation) and the representation reduce the complexity and improve compactness by a large factor (minimum 100).","PeriodicalId":393014,"journal":{"name":"UKRAS20 Conference: \"Robots into the real world\" Proceedings","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114816439","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}

During joint object transfer humans communicate about the interaction states through mul-tiple modalities and adapt to one another’s actions such that the interaction is successful. Knowledge of the current interaction state (i.e. harmonious, conflicting or passive interaction) can help us adjust our behaviour to carry out the task successfully. This study investigates the effectiveness of physical Human- Human Interaction (pHHI) forces for predicting interaction states during ongoing object co-manipulation. We use a sliding-window method for extracting features and perform online classification to infer the interaction states. Our dataset consists of haptic data from 40 subjects who are partnered to form 20 dyads. The dyads performed collaborative object transfer tasks in a haptics- enabled virtual environment to move an object to predefined goal configurations in different harmonious and conflicting scenarios. We evaluate our approach using multi-class Support Vector Machine classifier (SVMc) and Gaussian Process classifier (GPc) and achieve 80% accuracy for classifying general interaction types.","PeriodicalId":393014,"journal":{"name":"UKRAS20 Conference: \"Robots into the real world\" Proceedings","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116141126","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, with a focus on lab-based evaluation, it has been easy to overlook the potential realities of what AAL might look like in the future: a range of heterogeneous platforms, devices, and robots will generate swathes of knowledge that must be shared, within and outside the home. As such, it is important to consider scalability and interoperability in every aspect of future AAL solutions. Adaptivity as a Service (AaaS) is proposed as a highly specialised service with a core function of personalising and adapting smart homes and AAL systems to the needs and wants of individuals.","PeriodicalId":393014,"journal":{"name":"UKRAS20 Conference: \"Robots into the real world\" Proceedings","volume":"44 24","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141206097","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}

Crucial to this goal is revealing the specific features of insect eyes that engineered solutions would benefit from possessing, however progress in exploration of the design space has been limited by challenges in accurately replicating insect vision. Here we propose that emerging ray-tracing technologies are ideally placed to realise the high-fidelity replication of the insect visual perspective in a rapid, modular and adaptive framework allowing development of technical specifications for a new class of bio-inspired sensor.
