How Can Large Language Models Enable Better Socially Assistive Human-Robot Interaction: A Brief Survey

no code implementations1 Apr 2024 Zhonghao Shi, Ellen Landrum, Amy O' Connell, Mina Kian, Leticia Pinto-Alva, Kaleen Shrestha, Xiaoyuan Zhu, Maja J Matarić

Socially assistive robots (SARs) have shown great success in providing personalized cognitive-affective support for user populations with special needs such as older adults, children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and individuals with mental health challenges.

Expanding the Role of Affective Phenomena in Multimodal Interaction Research

no code implementations18 May 2023 Leena Mathur, Maja J Matarić, Louis-Philippe Morency

We find that this body of research has primarily focused on enabling machines to recognize and express affect and emotion.

Towards Intercultural Affect Recognition: Audio-Visual Affect Recognition in the Wild Across Six Cultures

no code implementations31 Jul 2022 Leena Mathur, Ralph Adolphs, Maja J Matarić

In our multicultural world, affect-aware AI systems that support humans need the ability to perceive affect across variations in emotion expression patterns across cultures.
