Navigation is a basic skill for autonomous robots. In the last years human–robot interaction
has become an important research field that spans all of the robot capabilities including …

In the context of a growing interest in modelling human behavior to increase the robots'
social abilities, this article presents a survey related to socially-aware robot navigation. It …

We present a systematic survey of computational research in humanrobot interaction (HRI)
over the past decade. Computational HRI is the subset of the field that is specifically …

Traditionally robots are mostly known by society due to the wide use of manipulators, which
are generally placed in controlled environments such as factories. However, with the …

Each person has their personal area which they do not want to share with others during
social interactions. The size of this area usually depends on various factors such as their …

With the growing demand of personal assistance to mobility and mobile service robotics,
robot navigation systems must be¿ aware¿ of the social conventions followed by people …

Our objective is to improve legibility of robot navigation behavior in the presence of moving
humans. We examine a human-aware global navigation planner in a path crossing situation …

Effective robot navigation in the presence of humans is hard. Not only do human obstacles
move, they react to the movements of the robot according to instinct and social rules. In order …

Autonomy and the ability to maintain social activities can be challenging for people with
disabilities experiencing reduced mobility. In the case of disabilities that impact mobility …

Robots have begun to populate the everyday environments of human beings. These social
robots must perform their tasks without disturbing the people with whom they share their …
