Multimodal interaction management for tour-guide robots using Bayesian networks [PDF]
Proceedings 2003 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS 2003) (Cat. No.03CH37453), 2004 In this paper, we propose a Bayesian network framework for managing interactivity between a tour-guide robot and visitors in mass exhibition conditions, through robust interpretation of multi-modal signals. We report on methods and experiments interpreting speech and laser scanner signals in the spoken dialogue management system of the autonomous tour ...

An Ethnomethodological Study of a Museum Guide Robot’s Attempt at Engagement and Disengagement
Journal of Robotics, 2014 We conducted a study of a museum guide robot’s attempt at engaging and disengaging the audience at predetermined points in time during a guided tour. We used “ethnomethodology” as a tool for our study and analysis.

An Educational Humanoid Laboratory Tour Guide Robot
Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences, 2014 AbstractIn this research we intend to use a robot as a tool to offer a tour guide to the Industrial Informatics and Robotics Laboratory from Research & Development Institute of Braşov. In this laboratory there are a lot of devices used for research and every time when new visitors or students come to see them, an operator must explain what each device ...
