About

Suzana Bašić is a researcher at the intersection of artificial intelligence, human-robot interaction, and situated semantics. Her work focuses on developing communicative robots capable of open-domain learning through natural language, enabling machines to acquire knowledge about both the world and their human companions. Bašić’s major contribution lies in modeling context-aware, situated semantic agents that can dynamically learn new concepts, recognize new friends, and infer properties of objects and individuals through dialogue. Her 2019 paper, “A communicative robot to learn about us and the world,” with 4 citations, introduces a robot driven to expand its understanding of unfamiliar concepts and social relationships. A second influential work, “Modelling Context Awareness for a Situated Semantic Agent” (2019, 2 citations), further explores how robots can maintain awareness of their environment and conversational context. While her citation counts are modest, Bašić’s research is foundational for creating more adaptive, socially intelligent robots that learn continuously from interaction—a critical step toward machines that truly understand and collaborate with people.
