About
Eui Jun Hwang is a leading researcher in human-robot interaction (HRI), specializing in the design and development of socially intelligent robotic systems for healthcare environments. His primary research focuses on task-oriented dialogue systems and end-to-end architectures that enable robots to engage in natural, multi-lingual verbal interactions with humans. Hwang’s most significant contribution is the creation of the HealthBots platform, which integrates a receptionist robot, a nurse assistant robot, and a medical server to streamline hospital operations. His pioneering work on the Hybrid Code Network (HCN) has advanced the field by allowing robots to autonomously select both responses and gestures, moving beyond traditional, costly pipeline approaches. His most cited paper, "Hospital Receptionist Robot v2: Design for Enhancing Verbal Interaction with Social Skills" (30 citations), demonstrates the practical impact of his research in improving patient and staff experiences. Hwang’s innovations have been showcased through multiple demonstrations, highlighting the potential of socially adept robots to reduce human workload in clinical settings. His work continues to shape the future of healthcare robotics, making him a key figure in the development of empathetic, task-oriented AI systems.
