This paper focuses on reshaping a previously detected human intention into a desired one, using contextual motions of mobile robots, which are in our applications, autonomous mobile 2-steps stairs and a chair. Our system first estimates the current intention based on human heading and trajectory depicted as orientation and location. Our previous reshaping applications have shown that the current human intention has to be deviated towards the new desired one in phases. In our novel approach, Elastic network generates way points of trajectories each of which acts as transient trajectories directed towards the desired intention's location. Our methodology aims at generating an "intention trajectory" towards the final goal. The initial way points possess destabilizing effects on the obstinance of the person intention making the "robot gain the curiosity and the trust of the person". Each way point generated by the elastic network is executed by moves of an adequate robot (here mobile 2-steps or chair) in adequate directions (towards coffee table, PC, TV, library). After each robot moves, the resulting human intention is estimated and compared to the desired goal in the intention space. Intention trajectories are searched in two modes: the "confident mode" and the "suspicious mode" which are defining human body-mood detected relying on proxemics. This paper analyzes our novel approach of planning trajectories via elastic networks based on these two modes.

Reshaping human intentions by autonomous sociable robot moves through intention transients generated by elastic networks considering human emotions Görür, Orhan Can; Erkmen, Aydan Müşerref; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2014) This thesis focuses on reshaping a previously detected human intention into a desired one, using contextual motions of mobile robots, which are in our applications, autonomous mobile 2-steps and a chair. Our system first estimates the current intention based on human trajectory depicted as location and detects body-mood of the person based on proxemics behaviors. Our previous reshaping applications have shown that the current human intention has to be deviated towards the new desired one in phases according...
Multiple human trajectory prediction and cooperative navigation modeling in crowded scenes Hacinecipoglu, Akif; Konukseven, Erhan İlhan; Koku, Ahmet Buğra (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-07-01) As mobile robots start operating in environments crowded with humans, human-aware navigation is required to make these robots navigate safely, efficiently and in socially compliant manner. People navigate in an interactive and cooperative fashion so that, they are able to find their path to a destination even if there is no clear route leading to it. There are significant efforts to solve this problem for mobile robots; however, they are not scalable to high human density and learning based approaches depen...
Human aware navigation of a mobile robot in crowded dynamic environments Hacınecipoğlu, Akif; Konukseven, Erhan İlhan; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2019) As mobile robots start operating in dynamic environments crowded with humans, human-aware and human-like navigation is required to make these robots navigate safely, efficiently and in socially compliant manner. People can navigate in an interactive and cooperative fashion so that, they are able to find their path to a destination even if there is no clear path leading to it. This is clearly a dexterity of humans. But the mobile robots which have to navigate in such environments lack this feature. Even perf...
Multi-agent system-based fuzzy controller design with genetic tuning for a mobile manipulator robot in the hand over task Erden, MS; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal; Halıcı, Uğur (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2004-03-01) This paper presents an application of the multi-agent system approach to a service mobile manipulator robot that interacts with a human during an object delivery and hand-over task in two dimensions. The base, elbow and shoulder of the robot are identified as three different agents, and are controlled using fuzzy control. The control variables of the controllers are linear velocity of the base, angular velocity of the elbow, and angular velocity of the shoulder. Main inputs to the system are the horizontal ...
Evolving aggregation behaviors in a swarm of robots Trianni, V; Gross, R; Labella, TH; Şahin, Erol; Dorigo, M (2003-01-01) In this paper, we study aggregation in a swarm of simple robots, called s-bots, having the capability to self-organize and self-assemble to form a robotic system, called a swarm-bot. The aggregation process, observed in many biological systems, is of fundamental importance since it is the prerequisite for other forms of cooperation that involve self-organization and self-assembling. We consider the problem of defining the control system for the swarm-bot using artificial evolution. The results obtained in a...
