• Title: What am I allowed to do here?: Online Learning of Context-Specific Norms by Pepper
• Authors: Ali Ayub, Alan R. Wagner
• Abstract summary: The paper utilizes a recent state-of-the-art approach for incremental learning and adapts it for online learning of scenes (contexts) After learning the scenes (contexts), we use active learning to learn related norms. Our results show that Pepper can learn different scenes and related norms simply by communicating with a human partner in an online manner.

• Abstract: Social norms support coordination and cooperation in society. With social robots becoming increasingly involved in our society, they also need to follow the social norms of the society. This paper presents a computational framework for learning contexts and the social norms present in a context in an online manner on a robot. The paper utilizes a recent state-of-the-art approach for incremental learning and adapts it for online learning of scenes (contexts). The paper further utilizes Dempster-Schafer theory to model context-specific norms. After learning the scenes (contexts), we use active learning to learn related norms. We test our approach on the Pepper robot by taking it through different scene locations. Our results show that Pepper can learn different scenes and related norms simply by communicating with a human partner in an online manner.

  We propose a novel approach that recognizes textbfContextual textbfSocial textbfRelationships (textbfConSoR) from a social cognitive perspective. We construct social-aware descriptive language prompts with social relationships for each image. Impressively, ConSoR outperforms previous methods with a 12.2% gain on the People-in-Social-Context (PISC) dataset and a 9.8% increase on the People-in-Photo-Album (PIPA) benchmark.

  We construct a new benchmark for studying visual-grounded commonsense norms: NORMLENS. We find that state-of-the-art model judgments and explanations are not well-aligned with human annotation. We present a new approach to better align models with humans by distilling social commonsense knowledge from large language models.

  We argue that social navigation models can replicate, promote, and amplify societal unfairness such as discrimination and segregation. Our proposed framework consists of two components: textitlearning which incorporates social context into the learning process to account for safety and comfort, and textitrelearning to detect and correct potentially harmful outcomes before the onset.
