Robot autonomy is an influential and ubiquitous factor in human-robot interaction (HRI), but
it is rarely discussed beyond a one-dimensional measure of the degree to which a robot …

This paper is interested in formalizing human trajectories in human-robot encounters.
Inspired by robot navigation tasks in human-crowded environments, we consider the case …

The rise of virtual influencers has significantly transformed the dynamics of influencer-
follower relationships. Integrating uncanny valley and parasocial relationship theories, in …

Robots in our society are commonly perceived as subordinate servants with a lower social

Introducing automated vehicles (AVs) on roads may challenge established norms as drivers
of human-driven vehicles (HVs) interact with AVs. Our study explored drivers' decisions in …

This paper presents a conceptual approach regarding robot-to-user adaptation, with a focus
on the psychological effects of this adaptation process during human-robot interaction (HRI) …

The tremendous development in large language models (LLM) has led to a new wave of
innovations and applications and yielded research results that were initially forecast to take …

In this paper, we are interested in formalizing human trajectories in human-robot encounters.
We consider a particular case where a human and a robot walk towards each other. A …

Abstract Human–Human and Human–Robot Interaction are known to be influenced by a
variety of modalities and parameters. Nevertheless, it remains a challenge to anticipate how …

We propose the use of interactive vignettes as an alternative to traditional text-and video-
based vignettes for conducting large-scale Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) studies …
