Exploring user experience and performance of a tedious task through human–agent relationship

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Positive human–agent relationships can effectively improve human experience and performance in human–machine systems or environments. The characteristics of agents that enhance this relationship have garnered attention in human–agent or human–robot ...

Can machines think? Interaction and perspective taking with robots investigated via fMRI. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
BACKGROUND: When our PC goes on strike again we tend to curse it as if it were a human being. Why and under which circumstances do we attribute human-like properties to machines?

Objectively Scoring the Human-Likeness of Artificial Driver Models

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Several applications of artificially modeled drivers, such as autonomous vehicles (AVs) or surrounding traffic in driving simulations, aim to provide not only functional but also human-like behavior.

Incorporating characteristics of human creativity into an evolutionary art algorithm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A perceived limitation of evolutionary art and design algorithms is that they rely on human intervention; the artist selects the most aesthetically pleasing variants of one generation to produce the next.

Perceptual discrimination difficulty and familiarity in the Uncanny Valley: More like a ‘Happy Valley’.

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2014
The Uncanny Valley Hypothesis (UVH) predicts that enhanced difficulty perceptually discriminating between categorically ambiguous human and humanlike characters (e.g., highly realistic robot) evokes negatively valenced (i.e., uncanny) experience.

Mean value coordinates–based caricature and expression synthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present a novel method for caricature synthesis based on mean value coordinates (MVC). Our method can be applied to any single frontal face image to learn a specified caricature face pair for frontal and 3D caricature synthesis.

The human likeness dimension of the "uncanny valley hypothesis": behavioural and functional MRI findings.

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2011
The uncanny valley hypothesis (Mori, 1970) predicts differential experience of negative and positive affect as a function of human likeness. Affective experience of realistic humanlike robots and computer-generated characters (avatars) dominates uncanny ...

There’s More to Humanity Than Meets the Eye: Differences in Gaze Behavior Toward Women and Gynoid Robots

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2019
Based on evolutionary psychological theories, numerous eye-tracking studies have demonstrated how people visually perceive a potential mate in order to efficiently estimate the person’s mate value.
