SUMMARY:Nonverbal Cues for Human-Robot Cooperative Intelligence
DESCRIPTION:Humans can perceive social cues and the interaction context of another human to infer internal states including cognitive and emotional states\, empathy\, and intention. This unique ability to infer internal states leads to effective social interaction between humans. Such unique ability is desirable for intelligent systems like robots\, virtual agents\, and human-machine interfaces to collaborate and interact seamlessly with humans in the era of Industry 5.0\, where intelligent systems must work alongside humans to perform a variety of tasks anywhere at home\, factories\, offices\, transit\, etc. \nThe underlying technologies to achieve efficient and intelligent collaboration between humans and ubiquitous intelligent systems can be realized by cooperative intelligence\, spanning interdisciplinary studies between robotics\, AI\, human-robot and -computer interaction\, computer vision\, cognitive science\, etc. \nThis workshop is dedicated to discussing computational methods for sensing and recognition of nonverbal cues and internal states in the wild to realize cooperative intelligence between humans and intelligent systems. Specifically\, we are interested in cognition-aware computing by integrating environmental contexts and multi-modal nonverbal social cues not limited to gaze interaction\, body language\, and para language. \nMore importantly\, we extend multi-modal human behavior research to infer the internal states of humans and to generate empathetic interactions between humans and intelligent systems. We gather researchers from different expertise\, yet have the common goal\, motivation\, and resolve to explore and tackle this delicate issue considering the practicality of industrial applications. We are calling for papers to discuss novel methods to realize human-robot cooperative intelligence by sensing and understanding humans’ behavior\, internal states\, and to generate empathetic interactions.

SUMMARY:Novel Approaches for Precision Agriculture and Forestry with Autonomous Robots
DESCRIPTION:Precision agriculture techniques are essential for increasing crop yields while reducing environmental impact\, particularly in the face of climate change effects. Commercial robotic solutions are actively being deployed to assist in agricultural tasks. However\, autonomous robots are far from reaching their full potential in this domain. Fully autonomous robots can significantly impact precision agriculture by providing mapping\, sensing\, or manipulation capabilities for crops and forests\, enabling fruit counting\, tree diameter estimation\, crop disease detection\, carbon sequestration quantification\, smart spraying\, and biomass estimation\, among others. \nThis workshop bridges industry and academia to discuss how to close the gap towards autonomous robots in agricultural and field robotics settings. Key topics include innovative forestry techniques for tree diameter and biomass estimation\, datasets\, semantic simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM)\, motion planning and navigation in cluttered environments\, crop inspections\, and applications. Attendees will gain insights into the latest research and developments at the intersection of precision agriculture and robotics from academic and industrial perspectives\, as well as the open challenges in the field and novel approaches to tackling them. \nThis workshop will also provide a forum for researchers beyond the agricultural robotics community to learn about this field\, encouraging them to apply their expertise in this challenging domain.

SUMMARY:3rd Workshop on Multilateral Human-Interaction-Oriented Teleoperation
DESCRIPTION:Teleoperation systems have benefited from their mechanical and technological components\, physical connections between diverse human-machine interfaces\, low-latency communication protocols\, and advanced control strategies. \nHowever\, this perspective often overlooks the nuanced aspects of human interaction and cognitive engagement in remote operation scenarios. This oversight can lead to suboptimal user experiences\, increased cognitive load\, and reduced operational efficiency. \nConversely\, emphasizing how humans perceive\, engage with\, and adapt to various teleoperated interfaces and scenarios can foster more intuitive\, efficient\, and adaptable teleoperation systems that align closely with human cognitive and sensory capacities. \nThe two focal points converge to construct a paradigm of human-interaction-oriented teleoperation augmentation\, stimulating more adaptability and user-friendliness. This 2nd ICRA workshop on Multilateral Teleoperation will provide a platform to delve into the forefront of teleoperation augmentation by seamlessly merging multi-dimensional aspects of human factors\, robotics\, control\, and embodied AI from the human-interaction-oriented perspective\, such as the multimodal sensory feedback and large models to align closely with human cognitive and sensory capacities. \nTen experts from academia and industry will present the state-of-the-art on topics including: \n\nInteraction modalities\nOperation subjects (single/multiple humans/robots)\nPerformance criteria (e.g.\, user preferences\, mental load\, maneuverability)\nPractical applications and future challenges arising from the interaction-centric perspective.

SUMMARY:Advances in Social Robot Navigation: Planning\, HRI\, and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:Robots navigating through uncontrolled human spaces face many challenges due to the uncertainty of human behavior and the unstructured nature of environmental context and social rules. Social robot navigation combines planning with human-robot interaction and communication strategies to provide acceptable\, context-dependent robot behavior. With recent rapid transformations in AI\, social robot navigation is changing\, and the Advances in Social Robot Navigation workshop explores these innovations in areas including planning\, human-robot interaction\, and beyond. \nThis full-day workshop brings together experts in these fields for invited talks\, panel discussions\, and participant presentations on advances in social robot navigation. The workshop will also host the Arena 4.0 challenge on benchmarking social robot navigation strategies through a set of AI-enabled open-source tools. Building on our successful series of workshops at ICRA’22\, IROS’23\, and RSS’24\, this workshop aims to investigate key aspects that make robot navigation more acceptable\, legible\, and social. This includes motion-task planning techniques\, foundation models\, human robot interaction\, communication strategies\, and human understanding ranging from individual behavior to pedestrian and crowd dynamics. We invite researchers from these fields to submit short papers and participate in our benchmark challenge\, and to join us for a workshop designed to encourage discussion.
