Abstract

The goal of this research is to investigate the effects of empathy and adaptive behaviour in long-term interaction between social robots and users. To address this issue, we propose an action selection mechanism that will allow a social robot to chose adaptive empathic responses, in the attempt to keep users engaged over several interactions.
