项目摘要

This award funds participation of researchers in a 2-day workshop to be held in Washington, D.C. entitled "Bridging the Gap: An NSF Workshop on Conversational Agents and Human-Robot Interaction". Recent technical advances have led to increased development and adoption of robots and embodied conversational agents in a variety of domains and contexts. As these agents and robots become increasingly ubiquitous in everyday life, it will become essential for researchers and designers of both robots and agents to understand the common challenges and opportunities for collaboration between humans and nonhuman agents. This award funds the attendance of researchers in the fields of embodied conversational agents and human-robot interaction for a workshop to lay the groundwork for a shared research agenda across both fields. The workshop involves keynote speakers commenting on the state of each field with panelists from the other, breakout sessions for discussion of crosscutting themes of common interest, and the development of a shared research agenda to identify current grand challenges and opportunities for productive collaboration between the fields of embodied conversational agents and human-robot interaction. The broad themes discussed include the challenges of embodiment (physical or virtual), coordination in mixed human-agent teams, social and affective dynamics of human-agent collaboration, control systems and learning, and the ethical implications of human-agent collaboration.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项资助研究人员参加在华盛顿特区举行的为期两天的研讨会，题为“弥合差距：NSF关于对话代理和人机交互的研讨会”。最近的技术进步导致了机器人的发展和采用，并在各种领域和上下文中体现了对话代理。随着这些代理和机器人在日常生活中变得越来越普遍，对于机器人和代理的研究人员和设计师来说，理解人类和非人类代理之间合作的共同挑战和机遇将变得至关重要。该奖项资助了嵌入会话代理和人机交互领域的研究人员参加一个研讨会，为这两个领域的共享研究议程奠定基础。研讨会包括主讲人与其他小组成员对每个领域的状态进行评论，讨论共同感兴趣的交叉主题的分组会议，以及共同研究议程的发展，以确定当前在具体化对话代理和人机交互领域之间富有成效的合作的重大挑战和机遇。讨论的广泛主题包括体现（物理或虚拟）的挑战，混合人-代理团队的协调，人-代理协作的社会和情感动态，控制系统和学习，以及人-代理协作的伦理含义。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
