Towards a Speech-Based Human-Robot Negotiation}, abstract = {Social robots are increasingly integrated into society, necessitating their interaction with humans to fulfill tasks. Negotiation stands as an essential process for these robots to engage in, enabling joint decision-making with human counterparts when conflicting interests arise. This paper introduces a novel approach for a humanoid robot to negotiate effectively with humans through speech. The research proposes a speech-based negotiation protocol where agents make offers in a turn-taking manner via speech. A variant of a time-based concession bidding strategy is presented for the humanoid robot, and its performance was evaluated against human counterparts in human-robot negotiation experiments.}, year = {2021}, publisher = {Springer Singapore}, address = {Singapore}, pages = {3--16} }
