Mind Your Manners! A Dataset and A Continual Learning Approach for Assessing Social Appropriateness of Robot Actions
To date, endowing robots with an ability to assess social appropriateness of their actions has not been possible. This has been mainly due to (i) the lack of relevant and labelled data, and (ii) the lack of formulations of this...
Biologically-Inspired Motion Encoding for Robust Global Motion Estimation.
The growing use of cameras embedded in autonomous robotic platforms and worn by people is increasing the importance of accurate global motion estimation (GME). However, existing GME methods may degrade considerably under...
Affect-Driven Learning of Robot Behaviour for Collaborative Human-Robot Interactions.
Collaborative interactions require social robots to share the users' perspective on the interactions and adapt to the dynamics of their affective behaviour. Yet, current approaches for affective behaviour generation in robots...
The landscape of facial processing applications in the context of the European AI Act and the development of trustworthy systems.
This work focuses on facial processing, which refers to artificial intelligence (AI) systems that take facial images or videos as input data and perform some AI-driven processing to obtain higher-level information (e.g. a...
Solar Reforming of Biomass with Homogeneous Carbon Dots.
A sunlight-powered process is reported that employs carbon dots (CDs) as light absorbers for the conversion of lignocellulose into sustainable H2 fuel and organics. This photocatalytic system operates in pure and untreated sea...
Toward a Neuroscientific Understanding of Play
Play during early life is a ubiquitous activity, and an individual's propensity for play is positively related to cognitive development and emotional well-being. Play behavior (which may be solitary or shared with a social...
Notch signaling coordinates ommatidial rotation in the Drosophila eye via transcriptional regulation of the EGF-Receptor ligand Argos
Abstract: In all metazoans, a small number of evolutionarily conserved signaling pathways are reiteratively used during development to orchestrate critical patterning and morphogenetic processes. Among these, Notch (N) signaling...

Reproducibility in Human-Robot Interaction
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To discuss the current state of reproducibility of research in human-robot interaction (HRI), challenges specific to the field, and recommendations for how the community can support reproducibility. RECENT...
In the Shadow of Japanese Identity
Rosendo Lopez-Duran
Jan 01, 0001
Japan is, as former Prime Minister As? Tar? once put it, commonly described as being "one race, one civilization, one language and one culture." This statement reflects a popular conception of Japan as a homogenous nation....

Homogeneity and the Other: Discrimination, Untouchability, and Identity
Rosendo Lopez-Duran
Jan 01, 0001
This project analyzes the issues experienced by Japan's largest minority group, the hisabetsu burakumin. Using a variety of burakumin and non-burakumin sources, I explore how the group's identity is constructed, why they are...

Brønsted Acid-Catalysed Dehydrative Substitution Reactions of Alcohols
The direct, catalytic dehydrative substitution of alcohols is a challenging, yet highly desirable process in the development of more sustainable approaches to organic chemistry. This review outlines recent advances in Brønsted...
