Each year, the HRI Conference highlights a particular area through a theme. The theme of HRI 2015 is “Broadening HRI: Enabling Technologies, Designs, Methods, and Knowledge.” The conference seeks contributions from a broad set of perspectives, including technical, design, methodological, behavioral, and theoretical, that advance fundamental and applied knowledge and methods in human-robot interaction. We particularly invite papers on work that “enables” human-robot interaction through new technical advances, novel robot designs, new guidelines for design, and advanced methods for understanding and evaluating interaction. The conference theme includes more information on the types of contribution.

The HRI Conference is a highly selective annual international conference that aims to showcase the very best interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research in human-robot interaction with roots in and broad participation from communities that include but not limited to robotics, human-computer interaction, human factors, artificial intelligence, engineering, and social and behavioral sciences.

Submission themes include:

• Studies of human-robot interaction
• Enabling technologies
• Enabling designs
• Enabling knowledge
• Enabling methods

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Mechatronics and robot platforms for HRI
• Robot middleware and software architectures
• Robot learning from human guidance and demonstration
• Robotic navigation and mobile manipulation for HRI
• Dialog and natural language for HRI
• Mixed initiative and sliding autonomy
• Privacy and security for real world HRI
• Enabling reproducibility and interoperability in robotics
• Safety and physical interactions between robots and humans
• Perception and recognition of human actions and activities
• Multi-modal interaction, perception, and decision making
• Task allocation and coordination
• Collaboration between humans and robots
• Social, lifelike, and/or companion robotics
• Field and service robotics
• Assistive robotics (e.g., autism, healthcare, rehabilitation, aging in place)
• Telepresence robots
• Long term interaction with robots
• Human-centered process for designing robot morphologies and behaviors
• New methods that enable the study, analysis, or construction of HRI
• Ethical, societal, and legal considerations in human-robot interaction
• Need finding for HRI
• Ethnography and field studies of HRI contexts
• Metrics and benchmarking for HRI
• User studies of HRI
• HRI group dynamics
• Autonomy and trust
• Interfaces and techniques for supervisory control
