Title
Robust risk-averse multi-armed bandits with application in social engagement behavior of children with autism spectrum disorder while imitating a humanoid robot
Abstract
•Proposing a learning algorithm to improve the social engagement behaviors of children with autism.•The proposed algorithm is a risk-averse Multi-Armed Bandit algorithm based on Entropic Value-at-Risk.•Assessing our proposed algorithm on children with autism while imitating a robot’s movements.•Featuring the robustness, risk-avoidance, and better performance of the proposed algorithm.•Enhancing the social engagement behaviors of children with autism during task imitation.
