Social Robotics is a research field aiming at designing robots able to interact with people in a natural manner. Within the domain of Socially Assistive Robotics the capability of adapting and personalizing behaviors and assistive services of robots, according to the specific assistive context and needs of a person is crucial to improve the efficacy in users support and hence acceptance. The authors rely on some recent results concerning the realization of a cognitive control approach for assistive robots supporting the synthesis of personalized and flexible assistive behaviors. This paper takes into account a general rehabilitation scenario and presents some initial steps toward the integration of perception, knowledge representation and planning capabilities to pursue flexibility, adaptation and personalization of assistive robot behaviors.

Abstract
Social Robotics is a research field aiming at designing robots able to interact with people in a natural manner. Within the domain of Socially Assistive Robotics the capability of adapting and personalizing behaviors and assistive services of robots, according to the specific assistive context and needs of a person is crucial to improve the efficacy in users support and hence acceptance. The authors rely on some recent results concerning the realization of a cognitive control approach for assistive robots supporting the synthesis of personalized and flexible assistive behaviors. This paper takes into account a general rehabilitation scenario and presents some initial steps toward the integration of perception, knowledge representation and planning capabilities to pursue flexibility, adaptation and personalization of assistive robot behaviors.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
