Co-adaptive Human–Robot Cooperation: Summary and Challenges

Abstract

The work presented here is a culmination of developments within the Swedish project COIN: Co-adaptive human-robot interactive systems, funded by the Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research (SSF), which addresses a unified framework for co-adaptive methodologies in human–robot co-existence. We investigate co-adaptation in the context of safe planning/control, trust, and multi-modal human–robot interactions, and present novel methods that allow humans and robots to adapt to one another and discuss directions for future work.
