Generating natural motion in robots is important for improving human-robot interaction. We developed a tele-operation system where the lip motion of a remote humanoid robot is automatically controlled from the operator's voice. In the present work, we introduce an improved version of our proposed speech-driven lip motion generation method, where lip height and width degrees are estimated based on...
Imitation is a very complicated function which requires a body mapping (a mapping from observed body motions to motor commands) that can discriminate between self motions and those of others. The developmental mechanism of this sophisticated capability, and the order in which the required abilities arise, is poorly understood. In this paper, we present a mechanism for the development of imitation...
This article presents a mechanism for the early development of imitation through a simulation of infant-caregiver interaction. A model was created to acquire a body mapping (a mapping from observed body motions to motor commands), which is necessary for imitation, while discriminating self-motion from the motion of the other. The simulation results show that the development of a body mapping depends...
