This addresses language grounding for human-robot interaction, but it appears incremental as it applies an existing model to a new robotic platform.
The paper tackles the problem of language grounding for meaningful interaction by using Anki's Cozmo toy robot as a platform, leveraging a words-as-classifiers model for reference resolution tasks, but no concrete results or numbers are reported as it is ongoing work.
Essential to meaningful interaction is grounding at the symbolic, conversational, and societal levels. We present ongoing work with Anki's Cozmo toy robot as a research platform where we leverage the recent words-as-classifiers model of lexical semantics in interactive reference resolution tasks for language grounding.
