Demonstrating to a humanoid robot how to conduct neuropsychological tests

Abstract

National audienceSeveral socially assistive robot (SAR) systems have been proposed and designed to engage people into various interactive exercises such as physical training [1], neuropsychological rehabilitation [2] or cognitive assistance [3]. While the interactive behavioral policies of most systems are scripted, we discuss here key features of a new methodology we developed in the framework of the SOMBRERO project 1 that enables professional caregivers to demonstrate a SAR how to perform the assistive tasks while giving proper instructions, demonstrations and feedbacks
