Ontology enhancing process for a situated and curiosity-driven robot (2014)
Journal Article
Rea, F., Nefti-Meziani, S., Manzoor, U., & Davis, S. (2014). Ontology enhancing process for a situated and curiosity-driven robot. Robotics and Autonomous Systems, 62(12), 1837-1847. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.robot.2014.06.005

Nowadays, robots need to be able to interact with humans and objects in a flexible way and should be able to share the same knowledge (physical and social) of the human counterpart. Therefore, there is a need for a framework for expressing and sharin... Read More about Ontology enhancing process for a situated and curiosity-driven robot.
