Can robots collaboratively exchange stories with children and improve their language and storytelling skills? With our latest Tega robot platform, we aim to develop a deep personalization algorithm based on a long-term interaction with an individual user. Through robot interaction, we collect a corpus of each child's linguistics, narrative, and concept skill information, and develop the robot's AI to generate stories and behaviors personalized to each child's growth level and engagement factors, including affective states.
