Robots should interpret and make continuous decisions for behaviors like human to interact with human users in a natural way. Humans have the ability to interpret the meanings of social signals emitted from participants in interactions and make behaviors by utilizing various social signals that convey the their own internal states and intentions, which we call social skills. We summarize the intermediate results for developing social skills for robots including engagement recognition, gaze aversion, selective attention, and feedback.
