Speech, Gesture, and Space: Investigating Explicit and Implicit Communication in Multi-Human Multi-Robot Collaborations

It has been demonstrated that people have a tendency to adapt both their linguistic representations and physical Communication is often required between agents as they actions in response to those they are interacting with, i.e., attempt to solve collaborative multi-agent tasks. This is they tend to formulate behavior and speech that will be particularly true in conditions in which an agent is working salient and sensible to a collaborating partner (Whittaker alongside a human--clearly, conventional electronic 2003). Collaboration in humans occurs via a process in communication is not feasible in this scenario; rather, these which people align their linguistic representations of the agents, including humans, must take advantage of physical environment allowing for more effective communicative communication in the shared context to confer necessary behavior. This alignment is achieved via a process in information. As an agent observes the actions of the others, which local alignment of environmental representations, it must modify its own behavior accordingly.
