Language Models for Human-Robot Interaction
Recent advances in large scale language models have significantly changed the landscape of automatic dialogue systems and chatbots. We believe that these models also have a great potential for changing the way we interact with robots.

A Framework of Hybrid Force/Motion Skills Learning for Robots [PDF]
Human factors and human-centred design philosophy are highly desired in today’s robotics applications such as human-robot interaction (HRI). Several studies showed that endowing robots of human-like interaction skills can not only make them more likeable

Safety Assurances for Human-Robot Interaction via Confidence-aware Game-theoretic Human Models [PDF]
An outstanding challenge with safety methods for human-robot interaction is reducing their conservatism while maintaining robustness to variations in human behavior. In this work, we propose that robots use confidence-aware game-theoretic models of human
