Imitative Neural Mechanism-Based Behavior Intention Recognition System in Human–Robot Interaction

摘要

This paper is concerned with an imitative neural mechanism for recognizing behavior intention in human–robot interaction system. The intention recognition process is inspired by the neural mechanism of the mirror neurons in macaque monkey brain. We try to renovate a standard neural network with parametric biases as a reference model to imitate between sensory-motor data pair. The imitation process is primarily directed toward reproducing the goals of observed actions rather than the exact action trajectories. Several experiments and their results show that the proposed model allows to develop useful robotic application for human–robot interaction system application.
