This is funding to support a Pioneers Workshop (doctoral consortium) of approximately 18 graduate students and post-docs (including about 12 U.S. participants) from diverse research communities (e.g., computer science and engineering, psychology, cognitive science, robotics, human factors, human-computer interaction design, and communications), along with distinguished research faculty. NSF funding will be used solely to cover travel, housing, and subsistence for eligible U.S. attendees. The event will take place on Monday, March 3, 2014, immediately preceding the Ninth International Conference on Human Robot Interaction (HRI 2014), to be held March 4-6 in Bielefeld, Germany, and which is jointly sponsored by ACM and IEEE. HRI is a single-track, highly selective annual international conference that seeks to showcase the very best inter- and multi-disciplinary research in human-robot interaction with roots in social psychology, cognitive science, HCI, human factors, artificial intelligence, robotics, organizational behavior, anthropology and many more, and invites broad participation. The theme of HRI 2014 is "(E)Merging Perspectives" which seeks to combine both user and system perspectives to advance new and possibly unorthodox methodologies. To extend the current singular approaches, this year's conference emphasizes papers that demonstrate the usage of novel empirical methods, the integration of empirical findings into complex robot systems, and holistic approaches in system evaluation. More information about the conference is available online at http://humanrobotinteraction.org/2014. The Pioneers Workshop is designed to complement the conference, by providing a forum for students and recent graduates in the field of HRI to share their current research with their peers and a panel of senior researchers in a setting that is less formal and more interactive than the main conference. During the workshop, participants will talk about the important upcoming research themes in the field, encouraging the formation of collaborative relationships across disciplines and geographic boundaries. To these ends, the workshop format will include oral presentations from 2 student attendees, poster presentations from all attendees, a hands-on meet-and-greet session, two alumni speakers, a keynote, and a panel presentation by senior researchers. The oral presentations and the interactive poster sessions will provide a forum for participants to share their research, enabling them to receive feedback on their work and to gain perspective on the field. The hands-on meet-and-greet session will involve networking and the cultivation of cross-disciplinary ideas. The alumni presentations will provide advice for short-term goals and a recent perspective on looking for jobs within the community. The keynote lecture will provide a global and future vision for HRI. The panel presentation will feature five senior HRI researchers from both academia and industry who will share insights about their own careers, answer career path questions, and provide insight into the interdisciplinary nature of the HRI community. The conversations between the panel and participants will continue over lunch and during dinner.Broader Impacts: This workshop will afford a unique opportunity for the best of the next generation of researchers in human-robot interaction to be exposed to and discuss current and relevant topics as they are being studied in several different research communities (including but not limited to computer science and engineering, psychology, robotics, human factors and ergonomics, and HCI). This is important for the field, because it has been recognized that transformative advances in research in this fledgling area can only come through the melding of cross-disciplinary knowledge and multinational perspectives. Participants will be encouraged to create a social network both among themselves and with senior researchers at a critical stage in their professional development, to form collaborative relationships, and to generate new research questions to be addressed during the coming years. Participants will also gain leadership and service experience, as the workshop is largely student organized and student led. The PI has expressed her strong commitment to recruiting women and members from under-represented groups. To further ensure diversity the event organizers will consider an applicant's potential to offer a fresh perspective and point of view with respect to HRI, and will limit the number of participants accepted from a particular institution to two, with one being a woman if two are accepted

这笔资金用于支持先锋研讨会（博士联盟），该研讨会由来自不同研究领域（例如计算机科学与工程、心理学、认知科学、机器人学、人为因素、人机交互设计、通信），以及杰出的研究人员。 NSF 资金将仅用于支付符合条件的美国与会者的旅行、住房和生活费。 该活动将于 2014 年 3 月 3 日星期一举行，紧接第九届人类机器人交互国际会议 (HRI 2014) 之前，该会议将于 3 月 4 日至 6 日在德国比勒费尔德举行，由 ACM 和 IEEE 联合主办。 HRI 是一个单一轨道、高度选择性的年度国际会议，旨在展示人机交互领域最好的跨学科和多学科研究，其根源在于社会心理学、认知科学、人机交互、人为因素、人工智能、机器人技术、组织行为学、人类学等等，并邀请广泛参与。 HRI 2014 的主题是“(E)合并视角”，旨在将用户和系统视角结合起来，以推进新的、可能非正统的方法。 为了扩展当前的单一方法，今年的会议强调了展示新颖的实证方法的使用、将实证研究结果整合到复杂的机器人系统中以及系统评估中的整体方法的论文。 有关会议的更多信息，请访问 http:// humanrobotinteraction.org/2014 。先锋研讨会旨在补充会议，为 HRI 领域的学生和应届毕业生提供一个论坛，让他们与同行和高级研究人员小组分享他们当前的研究成果，环境比研讨会更不那么正式，互动性更强。主要会议。 在研讨会期间，参与者将讨论该领域即将到来的重要研究主题，鼓励形成跨学科和地理边界的合作关系。 为此，研讨会的形式将包括 2 名学生与会者的口头演讲、所有与会者的海报演示、一次实践见面会、两位校友演讲者、一次主题演讲以及高级研究人员的小组演讲。 口头报告和互动海报会议将为参与者提供一个分享他们的研究的论坛，使他们能够收到有关其工作的反馈并获得对该领域的看法。 实践见面会将涉及网络和跨学科思想的培养。 校友演讲将为短期目标提供建议，并提供有关在社区内寻找工作的最新观点。 主题演讲将为 HRI 提供全球和未来愿景。 小组演讲将邀请来自学术界和工业界的五位高级 HRI 研究人员，他们将分享对自己职业生涯的见解，回答职业道路问题，并提供对 HRI 社区跨学科性质的见解。 小组和参与者之间的对话将在午餐和晚餐期间继续进行。 更广泛的影响：本次研讨会将为人机交互领域最优秀的下一代研究人员提供一个独特的机会，让他们接触并讨论当前和相关主题多个不同的研究团体正在对它们进行研究（包括但不限于计算机科学与工程、心理学、机器人学、人为因素和人体工程学以及人机交互）。 这对于该领域很重要，因为人们已经认识到，这一新兴领域的研究的变革性进展只能通过跨学科知识和跨国视角的融合来实现。 我们将鼓励参与者在专业发展的关键阶段在他们自己之间以及与高级研究人员建立一个社交网络，以形成合作关系，并提出未来几年要解决的新研究问题。 参与者还将获得领导和服务经验，因为研讨会主要是由学生组织和领导的。 PI 表达了她对招募女性和代表性不足群体成员的坚定承诺。 为了进一步确保多样性，活动组织者将考虑申请人提供有关 HRI 的新鲜视角和观点的潜力，并将从特定机构接受的参与者人数限制为两名，如果接受两名参与者，则一名女性
