::  evaluation of human-robot interaction quality
::  static/dynamic factors affecting human-robot interaction quality
::  interaction modalities (verbal and non-verbal)
::  understandable and explainable robots
::  human factors affecting the quality of interaction in HRI
::  human-centered design
::  interaction dynamics in HRI
::  theories, models, methodologies, and tools for evaluating quality of interaction in HRI
::  objective measures for evaluating quality of interaction
::  human-in-the-loop approaches
::  engagement in socially assistive robots
