معرفی
Andres Ramirez-Duque is a Researcher at the University of Glasgow’s School of Computing Science. His work focuses on Human-Robot Interaction (HRI), particularly in healthcare and pediatric clinical settings. He collaborates closely with experts like Mary Ellen Foster and Alan Lindsay to develop socially assistive robots that integrate emotional and cognitive strategies to support children during medical procedures. His research emphasizes practical applications of AI planning, affective computing, and privacy-conscious design in social robotics.
Research Interests:
- Healthcare Robotics
- Human-Affect Interaction
- AI Planning Algorithms for HRI
- Privacy-Conscious Robot Systems
- Co-design with Front-Line Workers
- Embedded System Integration
His recent articles explore themes such as managing user engagement in short-term interactions, lightweight cognition models for socio-affective HRI, and distraction techniques in pediatric emergency care. While no scientific awards are listed, his contributions highlight innovative approaches to ethical and practical HRI challenges.
