The robot as situated cognizer

Mit welchen „natürlichen Kommunikationssystemen“ müssen Roboter ausgestattet werden, um in realen Environments der Zukunft mit Menschen interagieren zu können? Insights into current basic research in multi-modal natural language understanding and related challenges - ein Vortrag von Dr. Brigitte Kern.

Human communication is inherently multi-modal, comprising not only the linguistic utterance but also signals transmitted via the visual channel including amongst others gaze, gesture and object manipulations. When robots are to interact with humans in real-world environments, within concrete task-specific situations, it is essential to endow robots with capabilities for multi-modal natural language processing and understanding.

Based on the analysis of human-human communication in task-oriented scenarios, we will discuss the natural language processing capabilities and related mechanisms a robot should be equipped with. This talk gives insights into current basic research in multi-modal natural language understanding and related challenges.
