Verhagen, R.S. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author), Tielman, M.L. (author)Introduction: Humans and robots are increasingly collaborating on complex tasks such as firefighting. As robots are becoming more autonomous, collaboration in human-robot teams should be combined with meaningful human control. Variable autonomy approaches can ensure meaningful human control over robots by satisfying accountability,...journal article 2024

Albers, N. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author), Brinkman, W.P. (author)Despite their prevalence in eHealth applications for behavior change, persuasive messages tend to have small effects on behavior. Conditions or states (e.g., confidence, knowledge, motivation) and characteristics (e.g., gender, age, personality) of persuadees are two promising components for more effective algorithms for choosing persuasive...conference paper 2023

Verhagen, R.S. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author), Parlar, C. (author), Vogel, M. (author), Tielman, M.L. (author)For human-agent teams to be successful, agent explanations are crucial. These explanations should ideally be personalized by adapting them to intended human users. So far, little work has been conducted on personalized agent explanations during human-agent teamwork. Therefore, an online experiment (n = 60) was conducted to compare personalized...conference paper 2023

Kim, Taewoon (author), Cochez, Michael (author), François-Lavet, Vincent (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author), Vossen, Piek (author)Inspired by the cognitive science theory of the explicit human memory systems, we have modeled an agent with short-term, episodic, and semantic memory systems, each of which is modeled with a knowledge graph. To evaluate this system and analyze the behavior of this agent, we designed and released our own reinforcement learning agent...conference paper 2023

To improve the cooperation between a child and a social robot, a good relationship is vital. Self-disclosure is an essential element for building personal relationships. Yet, knowledge about the effects of self-disclosure in child-robot interactions is still lacking....conference paper 2023

We propose a Team Design Pattern that utilizes adaptivity in the behavior of human and agent team partners, causing new Collaboration Patterns to emerge. Human-AI Co-Learning takes place when partners can formalize recognized patterns of...conference paper 2023

Verhagen, R.S. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author), Tielman, M.L. (author)Humans and robots are increasingly working together in human-robot teams. Teamwork requires communication, especially when interdependence between team members is high. In previous work, we identified a conceptual difference between sharing what you are doing (i.e., being transparent) and why you are doing it (i.e., being explainable). Although...journal article 2022

Advances in virtual coach technology provide new opportunities to improve this. However, these applications still do not always offer what people need. We, therefore, need a better...journal article 2022

Albers, N. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author), Brinkman, W.P. (author)Behavior change applications often assign their users activities such as tracking the number of smoked cigarettes or planning a running route. To help a user complete these activities, an application can persuade them in many ways. For example, it may help the user create a plan or mention the experience of peers. Intuitively, the application...journal article 2022
