In recent years, there has been a growing attention towards the development of interactive systems that can naturally communicate and interact with humans. However, despite the progress made, interactive systems are still directed to experts and consequently naive users or disabled may not exploit the potential of these robots. In order to improve these systems, new approaches from both multi-modal signal processing and machine learning methods should be investigated. Indeed, interaction require efficient perception of communicative signals, activities and other environmental information produced by the users in order to provide the most relevant feedback or service. However, the associated algorithms require huge volumes of labeled data which is incompatible with diversity of potential users and also time-consuming. In this context, we would like to bring together researchers from human-robot interaction and machine learning fields in order to discuss which methodologies and problems may take advantage of new advanced techniques, all this with the main objective of creating solutions to build robotic systems with high cognitive capabilities.

Call for Posters
Posters are an excellent way to present research and new ideas. We invite you to submit a 2-page poster abstract (including figures and references as needed) to be presented as a poster at the workshop. Your abstracts will go through a full peer-review process. The final number of posters we can accept is limited; acceptence will depend on relevance to the workshop topics and quality of presented work. The accepted posters will be included in the workshop proceedings and the authors will have the opportunity to present their work during the poster session. We encourage student participation in the workshop.
Important Dates:
• Poster abstract submission deadline: May 10th, 2010 ; Extended Deadline: May 15th, 2010
• Notification of poster acceptance: May 20th, 2010
• Conference and Workshop Registration: June 1st, 2010
• Workshop: June 27th, 2010
Please send your poster abstracts by email to rss2010_hri-request(at)isir.upmc.fr; use "RSS Workshop 2010 Abstract Submission" in the subject.
