In this paper, we propose a novel online algorithm for motion similarity measurements during human-robot interaction (HRI). Specifically, we formulate a Segment-based Online Dynamic Time Warping (SODTW) algorithm that can be used for understanding of repeated and cyclic human motions, in the context of rehabilitation or social interaction. The algorithm can estimate both the human-robot motion sim...
