Two contributions from the MAS research group are included in the newly published Frontiers eBook on the Research Topic “Dialogue with Robots: Constructive Approaches for Understanding Communication.”

The following publications are featured:

1. RISE: An Open-Source Architecture for Interdisciplinary and Reproducible Human–Robot Interaction Research (A. Groß, C. Schütze, M. Brandt, B. Wrede, B. Richter)
   → Presentation of an open and reproducible architecture designed to support interdisciplinary HRI research.
   
   
2. Scaffolding the Human Partner by Contrastive Guidance in an Explanatory Human–Robot Dialogue (A. Groß, A. Singh, N. C. Banh, B. Richter, I. Scharlau, K. J. Rohlfing, B. Wrede)
   → Joint publication with collaboration partners from TRR 318 Project A05, investigating how contrastive cues can be used in explanatory human–robot dialogues to specifically support human understanding.

The complete eBook and all individual articles are now available online via the Frontiers website and the Research Topic homepage.

We are delighted about this double contribution and the visibility of our research in the field of explainable human–robot interaction.
