ABSTRACT
Humans can communicate because they adapt and adjust their behavior to each other. Developing a relationship with an unknown artifact, on the other hand, is difficult. To address this problem, some robots utilize the context of the interaction between humans. However, there has been little investigation on interaction when no information about the interaction partner has been provided and where there has been no experimental task. Clarification of how people perceive unknown objects as agents is required. We believe that a stage of subconscious interaction plays a role in this process. We created an experimental environment to observe the interaction between a human and a robot whose behavior was actually mapped by another human. The participants were required to verbalize what they were thinking or feeling while interacting with the robot. The results of our experiment suggest that the timing of movement was used as the cue for interaction development. We need to verify the effects of other interaction patterns and inspect what kind of action and reaction are regarded as signals that enhance interpersonal interaction.

Process of Agency Identification Based on the Desire to Communicate in Embodied Interaction
HAI '16: Proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Human Agent InteractionHumans can communicate because they adapt and adjust their behavior to each other. We hypothesize that developing a relationship with others requires coordinating the desire to communicate and that this coordination is related to agency identification. ...
