Intention Based Comparative Analysis of Human-Robot Interaction

Abstract

Human-robot interaction is inevitable due to the increase of the autonomous intelligent machines in the human vicinity. The autonomous machines should synchronize with the interacting human. The key factor for synchronized Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) is a human intention. The interacting machine must have the clue about the intention of the interacting human for a useful interaction. In this review paper, recently proposed intention-based approaches for human-robot interaction are discussed. The approaches are categorized concerning different aspects, e.g., application area, specialized and generalized estimation techniques, etc. The review categorized the recently proposed approaches into five categories. The categorization is mainly based on the application areas of the intention recognition approaches. The type of approaches includes general and application-specific approaches. The application areas include synchronized physical human-assistance, human-synchronized vehicles, etc. The vehicles are synchronized with the driver and the pedestrian. The study highlighted the currently active as well as the dormant areas of the intention-based human-robot interaction and indicated new directions.

Human-Robot Interaction Review: Challenges and Solutions for Modern Industrial Environments

“…Beginning with the state machine-human intention prediction, it joins the approaches proposed by the literature, which apply state machines for determining the following actions of the human [127]. An approach suggests employing a Finite State Machine (FSM) to model human intention recognition.…”

Towards a Safe Human–Robot Collaboration Using Information on Human Worker Activity

“…In [ 34 ], the authors proposed a systematic user experience (UX) evaluation framework of action and intention recognition for interactions between humans and robots, from a UX perspective. In [ 35 ], the authors presented a method based on the radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) to identify the motion intention of the collaborator.…”

Expression Recognition Using Improved AlexNet Network in Robot Intelligent Interactive System

“…Robots still lack active awareness. In order for service robots to provide users with more convenient and humanized service experience, the traditional human-computer interaction technology must be upgraded so that robots can reasonably infer emotional state according to people's external state performance, so as to perceive and understand people's intentions and emotions and provide relevant services [8][9][10][11].…”
