Robot Navigation in Dense Crowds: Statistical Models and Experimental Studies of Human Robot Cooperation [PDF]

, 2013
This thesis explores the problem of mobile robot navigation in dense human crowds. We begin by considering a fundamental impediment to classical motion planning algorithms called the freezing robot problem: once the environment surpasses a certain level

Social inclusion of robots depends on the way a robot is presented to observers

Paladyn, 2022
Research has shown that people evaluate others according to specific categories. As this phenomenon seems to transfer from human–human to human–robot interactions, in the present study we focused on (1) the degree of prior knowledge about technology, in ...
