Influence of Pointing on Learning to Count: A Neuro-Robotics Model

9 Jul 2019  ·  Leszek Pecyna, Angelo Cangelosi ·

In this paper a neuro-robotics model capable of counting using gestures is introduced. The contribution of gestures to learning to count is tested with various model and training conditions. Two studies were presented in this article. In the first, we combine different modalities of the robot's neural network, in the second, a novel training procedure for it is proposed. The model is trained with pointing data from an iCub robot simulator. The behaviour of the model is in line with that of human children in terms of performance change depending on gesture production.
