Since their introduction, fuzzy sets and systems have become an important area of research known for its versatility in modelling, knowledge representation and reasoning, and increasingly its potential within the context explainable AI. While the app... Read More about Gradient-based Fuzzy System Optimisation via Automatic Differentiation – FuzzyR as a Use Case.

Encountering Autonomous Robots on Public Streets (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pelikan, H. R. M., Reeves, S., & Cantarutti, M. N. (2024, March). Encountering Autonomous Robots on Public Streets. Presented at 19th Annual ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction (HRI), Boulder, Colorado, USA

Robots deployed in public settings enter spaces that humans live and work in. Studies of HRI in public tend to prioritise direct and deliberate interactions. Yet this misses the most common form of response to robots, which ranges from subtle fleetin... Read More about Encountering Autonomous Robots on Public Streets.

The Purr-suit of Happiness: A Tale of Three Kittens, Robots, Humans, Cats, and AI (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Schneiders, E., Benford, S., Row Farr, J., Tandavanitj, N., & Adams, M. (2024, March). The Purr-suit of Happiness: A Tale of Three Kittens, Robots, Humans, Cats, and AI. Presented at HRI '24: ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction, Boulder CO USA

This paper showcases Cat Royale, an exploration of the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on animal happiness situated at the intersection of Art, Computer Science, and Animal Welfare. We argue for the inclusion of non-human actors when designing... Read More about The Purr-suit of Happiness: A Tale of Three Kittens, Robots, Humans, Cats, and AI.

The Effect of Predictive Formal Modelling at Runtime on Performance in Human-Swarm Interaction. Presented at HRI '24: ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction, Boulder CO USA

Formal Modelling is often used as part of the design and testing process of software development to ensure that components operate within suitable bounds even in unexpected circumstances. In this paper, we use predictive formal modelling (PFM) at run... Read More about The Effect of Predictive Formal Modelling at Runtime on Performance in Human-Swarm Interaction.

Exploring the Impact of Verbal-Imagery Cognitive Style on Web Search Behaviour and Mental Workload (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
