title: A Novel Greeting System Selection System for a Culture-Adaptive Humanoid Robot author: Tatsuki KANAGAWA <br> Yasutaka HIGA profile: Concurrency Reliance Lab lang: Japanese # Abstract * Robots, especially humanoids, are expected to perform human-like actions and adapt to our ways of communication in order to facilitate their acceptance in human society. * Among humans, rules of communication change depending on background culture. * Greeting are a part of communication in which cultural differences are strong. # Abstract * In this paper, we present the modelling of social factors that influence greeting choice, * and the resulting novel culture-dependent greeting gesture and words selection system. * An experiment with German participants was run using the humanoid robot ARMAR-IIIb. # Introduction * Acceptance of humanoid robots in human societies is a critical issue. * One of the main factors is the relations ship between the background culture of human partners and acceptance. * ecologies, social structures, philosophies, educational systems. # Introduction * In the work Trovat et al. culture-dependent acceptance and discomfort relating to greeting gestures were found in a comparative study with Egyptian and Japanese participants. * As the importance of culture-specific customization of greeting was confirmed. * Acceptance of robots can be improved if they are able to adapt to different kinds of greeting rules. # Introduction * Adaptive behaviour in robotics can be achieved through various methods: * reinforcement learning * neural networks * generic algorithms * function regression # Greeting selection <style> .slide.cover H2 { font-size: 60px; } </style> <!-- vim: set filetype=markdown.slide: -->
