Abstract

Most multi-robot systems assume all robots are programmed to cooperate and complete tasks without consideration of dishonest robots seeking to maximize their own benefit. The work presented here develops and analyzes a distributed trust estimation framework that allows robots to estimate the trustworthiness of other robots in the community, and share these estimates to enable cooperative trust estimation. Our previous work has shown that when observation errors were ignored, the trust-estimation error converges to a steady state value over time. We extend this previous work, by now considering the effects of observation error and proving that trust-estimation error converges.

Do Humans Trust Robots that Violate Moral Trust?
The increasing use of robots in social applications requires further research on human-robot trust. The research on human-robot trust needs to go beyond the conventional definition that mainly focuses on how human-robot relations are influenced by robot ...
