Hosted by the Wellcome Neural Dynamics PhD Programme

How robots perceive humans is as important as how humans perceive robots. Hence, developing systems that are able to understand and rationalize our actions, is the first step to creating more socially aware robots. Nonetheless, doing so can be "complicated" as human actions can sometimes be illogical but patterns can be detected and inferences can be made using AI. In this seminar we will be discussing the state-of-the-art approaches of detecting human intentions and internal states and how those systems are able to do so. Furthermore, we will also bring up some of the moral and societal concerns that those systems invoke.
