-- Dr. Alessandra Rossi Assistant Professor PRISCA research lab Department of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology University of Naples Federico II, Naples, Italy ================================================================ *** WorkhopTrust, Acceptance and Social Cues in Human-Robot Interaction *** 31st IEEE International Conference on Robot & Human Interactive Communication (RO-MAN 2022) August 29th - September 2nd, 2022 Naples, Italy http://ro-man2022.org http://ro-man2022.org/ *Important Dates* *Submission deadline*: 15 July 2022 *Acceptance*: 31 July 2022 People's ability of accepting and trusting robots is fundamental for a fruitful and successful coexistence between humans and people. While advanced progresses are reached in studying and evaluating the factors affecting acceptance and trust of people in robots in controlled or short-term (repeated interactions) setting, developing service and personal robots, that are accepted and trusted by people where the supervision of operators is not possible, still presents an open challenge for scientists in robotics, AI and HRI fields. In such unstructured static and dynamic human-centred environments scenarios, robots should be able to learn and adapt their behaviours to the situational context, but also to people’s prior experiences and learned associations, their expectations, and their and the robot’s ability to predict and understand each other's behaviours. This workshop focuses on addressing the challenges and development of the dynamics between people and robots in order to foster short interactions and long-lasting relationships in different fields, from educational, service, collaborative, companion, care-home and medical robotics. Although the previous editions valued the participation of leading researchers in the field and several exceptional invited speakers who tackled down some fundamental points in this research domains, we wish to continue to further explore the role of trust in robotics to present groundbreaking research to effectively design and develop socially acceptable and trustable robots to be deployed "in the wild". Topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Impact of Social Cues on Trust in HRI * Measuring Trust in HRI * Trust Violation and Recovery Mechanism in HRI * Effects of Humans’ Acceptance on Trust of Robots * Humans Sense of Control and Trust in Robots * Trust and Assistive Robotics * Overtrust in Robots * Antecedent of Trust and Robot Trust * Enhancing Humans Trust in Robots * Enhancing Trust in a Robot Companion * Privacy Implications on Trust in HRI * Mental Models and Trust in HRI * Trust and Safety in HRI * Ethics Implications on Trust in HRI * Trustworthy AI * XAI in HRI * Legal Frameworks for Trustworthy Robotics Templates and Submission Procedure We encourage participants to submit two-page abstracts or full papers (up to 6 pages) on original and unpublished research. We will also welcome submissions of two-page position papers on topics covering the scope of the workshop. All accepted papers will have an oral presentations. We further welcome authors of the accepted papers to present a video or demonstrate their works and achievements. Video demonstrations should be accompanied by an up to 2 pages abstract describing the work and achievements. Authors should submit their papers formatted according to the IEEE two-column format http://ras.papercept.net/conferences/support/support.php, which is also used for contributions to the main conference. Use the following templates to create the paper and generate or export a PDF file: LaTeX http://ras.papercept.net/conferences/support/tex.php or MS-Word http://ras.papercept.net/conferences/support/word.php. PDF submission will be possible via EasyChair https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=scrita2022. Each paper will receive at least two reviews. All papers are reviewed using a single-blind review process: authors declare their names and affiliations in the manuscript for the reviewers to see, but reviewers do not know each other's identities, nor do the authors receive information about who has reviewed their manuscript. Authors who want to include a video in their submission can indicate their plans via EasyChair and will be sent a link to a confidentially upload the video file. At least one of the authors of the accepted papers needs to register for the workshop.
