TaskMaster: A Novel Cross-platform Task-based Spoken Dialogue System for Human-Robot Interaction (2023)
Conference Proceeding
Strathearn, C., Yu, Y., & Gkatzia, D. (2023). TaskMaster: A Novel Cross-platform Task-based Spoken Dialogue System for Human-Robot Interaction. In Proceedings of The Joint CUI and HRI Workshop at HRI 2023

The most effective way of communication between humans and robots is through natural language communication. However, there are many challenges to overcome before robots can effectively converse in order to collaborate and work together with humans....

Chefbot: A Novel Framework for the Generation of Commonsense-enhanced Responses for Task-based Dialogue Systems (2021)
Conference Proceeding
Strathearn, C., & Gkatzia, D. (2021). Chefbot: A Novel Framework for the Generation of Commonsense-enhanced Responses for Task-based Dialogue Systems. In Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Natural Language Generation (46-47)

Conversational systems aim to generate responses that are accurate, relevant and engaging, either through utilising neural end-to-end models or through slot filling. Human-to-human conversations are enhanced by not only the latest utterance of the in...

The Multimodal Turing Test for Realistic Humanoid Robots with Embodied Artificial Intelligence (2021)
Conference Proceeding
Strathearn, C., & Ma, M. (2021). The Multimodal Turing Test for Realistic Humanoid Robots with Embodied Artificial Intelligence. In Joint Proceedings of the LIFELIKE 2020 - 8th Edition in the Evolution of the Workshop Series of Autonomously Learning and Optimizing Systems (SAOS) co-located with 2020 Conference on Artificial Life (ALIFE 2020)

Alan Turing developed the Turing Test as a method to determine whether artificial intelligence (AI) can deceive human interrogators into believing it is sentient by competently answering questions at a confidence rate of 30%+. However, the Turing Tes... Read More about The Multimodal Turing Test for Realistic Humanoid Robots with Embodied Artificial Intelligence.

The Task2Dial Dataset: A Novel Dataset for Commonsense-enhanced Task-based Dialogue Grounded in Documents (2021)
Conference Proceeding
Strathearn, C., & Gkatzia, D. (2021). The Task2Dial Dataset: A Novel Dataset for Commonsense-enhanced Task-based Dialogue Grounded in Documents. In Proceedings of The Fourth International Conference on Natural Language and Speech Processing (ICNLSP 2021) (242-251)

This paper describes the Task2Dial dataset, a novel dataset of document-grounded task-based dialogues in the food preparation domain , where an Information Giver (IG) provides instructions to an Information Follower (IF) so that the latter can succes...

Development of 3D Sculpted, Hyper-Realistic Biomimetic Eyes for Humanoid Robots and Medical Ocular Prostheses (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Strathearn, C., & Ma, M. (in press). Development of 3D Sculpted, Hyper-Realistic Biomimetic Eyes for Humanoid Robots and Medical Ocular Prostheses. In Proceedings of the 2nd International Symposium on Swarm Behavior and Bio-Inspired Robotics (SWARM 2017) (204-211)

Hyper-realistic Humanoid Bio-robotic Systems (HHBS) are the precise electro-mechanical bodily emulation of natural human being in materiality, form and function. However, the standardised approach of constructing static ocular prosthesis for implemen...
