Humanoid Robot Assisted Training for Facial Expressions Recognition Based on Affective Feedback

Published in Social Robotics. ICSR 2015, 2015

Summary

This study presented a humanoid robot-assisted training system for facial expression recognition based on affective feedback. The work explored how a social robot could be used to support learning of facial expression recognition through feedback during training.

The study contributes to the Training and Autism Support lines by arranging a robot-mediated procedure for expanding social-perceptual repertoires. It also connects social robotics with technology-enhanced behavioral support for children with developmental disabilities.
