This method is a part of a larger research project aimed at modeling motor control and imitation using the notion of perceptuo-motor primitives, a basis set of coupled perceptual and motor routines. ...
We used data from a psychophysical experiment on human imitation to derive a set of primitives, and then used those primitives as a basis for superposition and sequencing to reconstruct the original movements ...
The data used for this analysis were gathered by M. Matarić and M. ...

Prospection in Cognition: The Case for Joint Episodic-Procedural Memory in Cognitive Robotics
2015
Frontiers in Robotics and AI
Such a framework would be founded on joint perceptuo-motor representations. ...
In this paper, we examine the case for this form of representation, contrasting sensory-motor theory with ideo-motor theory, and we discuss how such a framework could be realized by joint episodic-procedural ...

Learning to Synchronously Imitate Gestures Using Entrainment Effect

Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Hence, we present in this paper a neural model for gesture learning by imitation using entrainment effect applied to a NAO robot interacting with a human partner. ...
In the light of its importance in interaction and wishing to define new HRI, we suggest to model this entrainment to highlight its efficiency for gesture learning during imitative games and for reducing ...
