This\narticle presents a computational model and a robotic experiment to articulate\nthe hypothesis that children discover communication as a result\nof exploring and playing with their environment. The considered\nrobotic agent is intrinsically motivated towards situations in which\nit optimally progresses in learning. To experience optimal learning\nprogress, it must avoid situations already familiar but also situations\nwhere nothing can be learnt. The robot is placed in an environment in\nwhich both communicating and non-communicating objects are present.\nAs a consequence of its intrinsic motivation, the robot explores this environment\nin an organized manner focusing first on non-communicative\nactivities and then discovering the learning potential of certain types of\ninteractive behaviour. In this experiment, the agent ends up being interested\nby communication through vocal interactions without having\na specific drive for communication."^^ . "2006" . . "18" . "2" . .
