Abstract :
This paper describes our work on improving interaction between humans and mobile robots on navigation tasks. To represent and reason about humans´ route instructions, a user-centered qualitative spatial model- the Conceptual Route Graph - is introduced. Three reasoning strategies based on this conceptual model are discussed, which enable a mobile robot to generate different clarification responses if spatial mismatches are detected in route instructions. Moreover, results of an empirical study to evaluate and compare their effects on people´s navigation activities are presented.
