Human-Robot Trust
Towards Trustworthy AI System
Trust is essential for successful human-robot interaction. When robots are in human environments, establishing a trusting relationship is crucial. This project focuses on understanding human-robot trust in time-sensitive scenarios where a robot or AI agent provides advice. The goal is to develop algorithms that infer human trust from prior interactions and mitigate negative outcomes when trust is violated (Xu, 2018).
Key aspects of the project include:
- Investigating trust between humans and interactive robots during cognitive problem-solving (Xu & Howard, 2018; Xu & Howard, 2018) and simulated driving scenarios (Xu & Howard, 2020).
- Developing a realistic VR driving scenario based on the Georgia Tech campus (Xu & Howard, 2020).
- Creating a computational framework to model human-robot trust in these scenarios (Xu & Howard, 2020).
- Developing trust repair strategies to restore broken trust and mitigate potential negative outcomes (Xu & Howard, 2022).
