10:00 - 10:30	Handover in humans and robots - experiments and a probabilistic model (invited talk) - Stefan Glasauer - LMU
10:30 - 11:00	Coffee break
11:00 - 11:30	Session 1 - Contribution papers - (chair: Mamoun Gharbi)
11:00 - 11:10	› Learning Dynamic Human-Robot Object Handover from Human Feedback - Andras Kupcsik, David Hsu, Wee Sun Lee
11:10 - 11:20	› Evaluation of Human-Robot Collaboration Models for Fluent Operations in Industrial Tasks - Ygal Peretz, Lior Sayfeld, Yael Edan, Roy Someshwar
11:20 - 11:35	Human hand-over behaviour benchmarks for human-robot object exchange (invited talk) - Marek Sinason - University of Birmingham
11:35 - 12:35	Panel 1 - User study on hand-overs Panelists - Mary-Ellen Foster, Chien-Ming Huang, Marek Sinason In this panel, we will discuss our experiences around trying to setup and to conduct user study on hand-over. What kind of sensors we used? What kind of social signals need to be taken into account? What are the results (the expected one and the real one)? could we imagine the ideal setup for this kind of study? What have been already done? what needs to be studied?
12:35 - 14:30	Lunch
14:30 - 15:00	Planning where to achieve a hand-over - Mamoun Gharbi - LAAS-CNRS
15:00 - 15:30	Robot Motion Synthesis and Control for Human-Initiated Physical Interaction (invited talk) - Katsu Yamane - Disney Research
15:30 - 15:45	Towards Human-Robot object exchange, lessons learned (invited talk) - Anthony Remazeilles - Tecnalia
15:45 - 16:00	Human-inspired release controller for natural robot to human handover tasks (invited talk) - Marco Controzzi - Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna
16:00 - 16:30	Coffee break
16:30 - 17:00	Session 2 - Contribution papers - (chair: Rachid Alami)
16:30 - 16:40	› Toward Safe Interaction Control with Dynamical Systems - Klas Kronander, Aude Billard
16:40 - 16:50	› Human-inspired object load transfer in hand-over tasks - Efi Psomopoulou, Zoe Doulgeri
16:50 - 17:00	› Predicting Object Transfer Position and Timing in Human-robot Handover Tasks - Zhi Li, Kris Hauser
17:00 - 18:15	Panel 2 - Algorithmic issues around hand-over Panelists: Marco Controzzi, Katsu Yamane, Rachid Alami, Jim Mainprice In this panel, we will discuss on what means to take the human in the loop in motion planning. Key challenges are object manipulation and motion planning in the vicinity of humans, hand-over configuration computation, coordination/synchronization/timing (before, during, and after the hand-over), motion dynamics during the execution and legibility of motion, compliant force-position control, perception of humans and activity recognition, social cues and norms that need to be considered, and intent communication and signaling (gaze).
