    Joint visual attention modeling for naturally interacting robotic agents
    (IEEE, 2009-09) Yücel, Zeynep; Salah, A. A.; Meriçli, C.; Meriçli, T.
    This paper elaborates on mechanisms for establishing visual joint attention for the design of robotic agents that learn through natural interfaces, following a developmental trajectory not unlike infants. We describe first the evolution of cognitive skills in infants and then the adaptation of cognitive development patterns in robotic design. A comprehensive outlook for cognitively inspired robotic design schemes pertaining to joint attention is presented for the last decade, with particular emphasis on practical implementation issues. A novel cognitively inspired joint attention fixation mechanism is defined for robotic agents. © 2009 IEEE.
