Special Sessioin I

The 11th International Conference on Electrical Engineering, Control and Robotics (EECR 2025)

"Special sESSION i"

Special Session Title: AI for Human-Machine Interaction

Introductation: We have now entered the era of artificial intelligence, with widespread applications of technologies such as large models, embodied intelligence, and deep learning. How to leverage these technologies to achieve more convenient, efficient, and secure human-computer interaction (HCI) has become a hot and challenging research topic.
We encourage authors to submit their original contributions about human-in-the-loop based robotic systems. Potential topics include, but are not limited to the following:

  • LLM methods and application

  • Advanced control for HCI

  • Tactile perception

  • Affordances for robots

  • Explainable AI

  • Human-centered robotics applications

  • Immersive Robot Teleoperation

  • Human-Robot Collaboration

  • Robot Learning
