Enabling robots to learn from interactions with users is essential to perform service tasks. However, as a robot categorizes objects from multimodal information obtained by its sensors during interactive onsite teaching, the inferred names of unknown objects do not always match the human user's expectation, especially when the robot is introduced to new environments. Confirming the learning result...
