Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Human–robot interaction (HRI) is a multi-disciplinary field that encompasses artificial intelligence, robotics, human–computer interaction, machine vision, natural language understanding, and social science. With the rapid development of AI and robotics, intelligent HRI has become an increasingly attractive issue in the field of robotics.
Intelligent HRI involves many challenges in science and technology, particularly in human-centered aspects. These include human expectations, attitudes towards, and perceptions of robots; the safety, acceptability, and comfort with robotic behaviors; and the closeness of robots to humans. On the other hand, it is desired for robots to understand the attention, intention, and even emotion of humans and make prompt corresponding responses with the support of AI. Achieving excellent intelligent HRI requires R&D in this multi- and cross-disciplinary field, with efforts expected in all relevant aspects including actuation, sensing, perception, control, recognition, planning, learning, AI algorithms, intelligent IO, integrated systems, and so on.
The aim of this Special Issue is to reveal new concepts, ideas, findings, and the latest achievements in both theoretical research and technical development in intelligent HRI. We invite scientists and engineers from robotics, AI, computer science, and other relevant disciplines to present the latest results of their research and development in the field of intelligent HRI. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Intelligent sensors and systems;
- Bio-inspired sensing and learning;
- Multi-modal perception and recognition;
- Social robotics;
- Autonomous behaviors of robots;
- AI algorithms in robotics;
- Collaboration between humans and robots;
- Advances and future challenges of HRI.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Biomimetics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2200 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
