“#Future robot battle buddies may read your emotions to fight better<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n The Army\u2019s plans for robotic wingmen in vehicle formations, a drone on every soldier and robotic mules carrying gear all aim to take the load off the fighter. But how will the two communicate, robot and human?<\/p>\n

Voice commands like automated assistants on smartphones are great, but not when the threat of incoming fire means the robot battle buddy needs to decipher a range of priorities that humans might take for granted.<\/p>\n

Think more C3PO or R2D2 in the \u201cStar Wars\u201d movies<\/a> than Hal in \u201c2001: A Space Odyssey\u201d \u2014or better yet, a friendly cyborg from \u201cTerminator\u201d might be the best way to see your robot combatant squad mate of the distant future.<\/p>\n

Enter research at the Army Combat Capabilities Development Command\u2019s Army Research Laboratory.<\/a><\/p>\n

A recent paper<\/a> published by ARL\u2019s Celso de Melo, a computer scientist, and Kazunori Terada at Gifu University in Japan, showed that emotional cues such as facial expressions and body language can be key factors in how machines and humans team-up. Those emotional expressions shape cooperation.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople learn to trust and cooperate with autonomous machines,\u201d de Melo told Army Times.<\/p>\n

The computer scientists have spent a career working on how artificial intelligence perceives the surrounding environment, known as \u201ccomputer vision.\u201d He\u2019s also done research into social<\/a>ly intelligent machines.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve always believed that we cannot get AI to be successful, we won\u2019t have [full adoption] of AI in all of these aspects of life, unless we see the social skills we see in humans,\u201d de Melo said.<\/p>\n

For example, if a human member of the soldier-robot team is feeling particularly stressed, and the AI in the system can better read that stress and its effects, it can modify its communication to respond to the teammate.<\/p>\n

\u201cHuman cooperation is paradoxical,\u201d de Melo said in an Army release. \u201cAn individual is better off being a free rider, while everyone else cooperates; however, if everyone thought like that, cooperation would never happ<\/a>en. Yet, humans often cooperate. This research aims to understand the mechanisms that promote cooperation, with a particular focus on the influence of strategy and signaling.\u201d<\/p>\n

Whether we humans realize it or not, there\u2019s a constant back and forth going on, verbally and nonverbally, when we communicate. That\u2019s especially true when we are working in a team, toward a goal.<\/p>\n

Something as simple as the timing of a smile can change a lot about how people perceive they\u2019re being treated in a team.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe show that emotion expressions can shape cooperation,\u201d de Melo said. \u201cFor instance, smiling after mutual cooperation encourages more cooperation; however, smiling after exploiting others \u2014 which is the most profitable outcome for the self \u2014 hinders cooperation.\u201d<\/p>\n

While much of the general<\/a> research about human-machine cooperation and communication is applicable to people in all situations, there are differences in military scenarios as compared with civilian settings.<\/p>\n

This paper and research along these lines is still in very early development phases, de Melo said. Even within the AI research community, scientists like him and his collaborator, Terada, still work to convince their colleagues that this is fundamental to the future of robot-human teaming.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
