Conference Proceeding
Abioye, A. O., Hunt, W., Gu, Y., Schneiders, E., Naiseh, M., Fischer, J. E., …Sevegnani, M. (2024). The Effect of Predictive Formal Modelling at Runtime on Performance in Human-Swarm Interaction. In HRI ’24 Companion of the 2024 ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction. https://doi.org/10.1145/3610978.3640725

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.

Encountering Autonomous Robots on Public Streets (2024)
Conference Proceeding
Pelikan, H. R. M., Reeves, S., & Cantarutti, M. N. (2024). Encountering Autonomous Robots on Public Streets. In HRI '24: Proceedings of the 2024 ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction. https://doi.org/10.1145/3610977.3634936

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)
Conference Proceeding

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.

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