title: The Challenges of Joint Attention creator: Kaplan, Frederic creator: Hafner, Verena subject: Developmental Psychology subject: Robotics subject: Behavioral Analysis description: This paper discusses the concept of joint attention and the different skills underlying its development. We argue that joint attention is much more than gaze following or simultaneous looking because it implies a shared intentional relation to the world. The current state-of-the-art in robotic and computational models of the different prerequisites of joint attention is discussed in relation with a developmental timeline drawn from results in child studies. publisher: Lund University Cognitive Studies contributor: Berthouze, Luc contributor: Kozima, Hideki contributor: Prince, Christopher G. contributor: Sandini, Giulio contributor: Stojanov, Georgi contributor: Metta, Giorgio contributor: Balkenius, Christian date: 2004 type: Conference Paper type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: http://cogprints.org/4067/1/kaplan.pdf identifier: Kaplan, Frederic and Hafner, Verena (2004) The Challenges of Joint Attention.
