Inadequate variety of personalities for communication robots may cause unnatural interaction with them and reduce the sense of attachment. We propose the C 2 AT 2 HUB engine, where communication robots are characterized based on long-term interaction with users. In C 2 AT 2 HUB, robots’ characterization is assessed by the following two factors; “interpersonal affect” and “emotions.” The transition of the factors is adjusted by the history of users’ actions to robots in order to characterize the robots gradually. Through experimentation, our system proved the characterization of robots to be natural and that it improves the user impression of robots.
