- Personal Robots
I am currently conducting research in the fields of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Human-Robot Interaction (HRI). My work involves social robots, with a focus on enhancing their emotional intelligence, social situatedness, and conversational capabilities. I leverage multimodal data, including video and audio inputs, and apply theories from human-human interaction. The purpose of my research is to deepen our understanding of robot-human interactions, exploring how robots can efficiently build relationships with humans and mediate human-human interactions.
