| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We proposed a Virtual reality based errorless learning system using humanoid agent interaction for people with Alzheimer’s disease. The proposed humanoid agent enables to provide an errorless learning through natural collaborative leaning as a novel prompt, as well as to design an adaptive prompt based on emotional state of the patient. As a result of the pilot study, we found that 1) the humanoid agent enables to effectively induce visual attention to a target task, 2) the humanoid agent’s behavior enables to reduce mental workload of the subject, and 3) the subject’s experience of some task was corresponded to the positive impression of the agent’s behavior.
