Abstract
In our daily life, it is inevitable to confront the condition which we feel confident or unconfident. Under these conditions, we might have different expressions and responses. Not to mention under the situation when a human communicates with a robot. It is necessary for robots to behave in various styles to show adaptive confidence degree, for example, in previous work, when the robot made mistakes during the interaction, different certainty expression styles have shown influence on humans’ truthfulness and acceptance. On the other hand, when human feel uncertain on the robot’s utterance, the approach of how the robot recognizes human’s uncertainty is crucial. However, relative researches are still scarce and ignore individual characteristics. In current study, we designed an experiment to obtain human verbal and non-verbal features under certain and uncertain condition. From the certain/uncertain answer experiment, we extracted the head movement and voice factors as features to investigate if we can classify these features correctly. From the result, we have found that different people had distinct features to show different certainty degree but some participants might have a similar pattern considering their relatively close psychological feature value. We aim to explore different individuals’ certainty expression patterns because it can not only facilitate humans’ confidence status detection but also is expected to be utilized on robot side to give the proper response adaptively and thus spice up the Human-Robot Interaction.
