Modeling human-robot interaction for intelligent mobile robotics

The focus of this paper is the design of a system for human-robot interaction that allows the robot(s) to interact with people in modes that are common to them. The results are a designed architecture for a system to support human-robot interaction. The structure includes a monitoring agent for detecting the presence of people, an interaction agent to handle choosing robot behaviors that are used for interacting, both socially and for task completion, and a capability agent which is responsible for the robot's abilities and actions.
