Sciutti, Alessandra, Ambra Bisio, Francesco Nori, Giorgio Metta, Luciano Fadiga and Giulio Sandini 2015 Robots can be perceived as goal-oriented agentsGaze in Human-Robot Communication, Broz, Frank, Hagen Lehmann, Bilge Mutlu and Yukiko Nakano (eds.), pp. 13–32 | Article
Understanding the goals of others is fundamental for any kind of interpersonal interaction and collaboration. From a neurocognitive perspective, intention understanding has been proposed to depend on an involvement of the observer’s motor system in the prediction of the observed actions (Nyström et… read more

This paper reports about our investigation on action understanding in the brain. We review recent results of the neurophysiology of the mirror system in the monkey. Based on these observations we propose a model of this brain system which is responsible for action recognition. The link between… read more
