Welcome to the first edition of the J-DAI Workshop - Exploring joint actions from both human and robot perspectives for Human-Robot Interaction (HRI)
Venue
This full-day workshop will be held on 1st September 2024 in conjunction with the IEEE RAS EMBS 10th International Conference on Biomedical Robotics and Biomechatronics (BioRob 2024)
Workshop organizers
Statement of Objectives
Robotics often requires interaction (e.g. supporting a patient in rehabilitation) and therefore a knowledge of how humans perform joint action and a creative way to transfer this to human-robot interaction is needed. The workshop supports this through three aspects: i) joint talks to create cross-discipline discussion; ii) a poster session for field engagement; and iii) open Q&A sessions to spark innovative ideas. Finally, the plenary discussion will analyze the usage of deep learning models for interaction, and explore real-world applications.
