    "abstract": "To help others, we need to infer one’s goal and intention and\nmake an action which complements one’s action yet to meet\nthe underlying goal. In this study, we consider the\ncomputational mechanism how a person can infer the other’s\nintention and goal from his or her action, which is not\ncompleted or fails to meet the goal. As a minimal motor control\ntask toward a goal, we analyzed single-link pendulum control\ntasks and its variation. By analyzing two types of pendulum\ncontrol tasks, we show that a sort of fractal dimension of\nmovements is characteristic of the difference in the underlying\nmotor controllers. Further, using the fractal dimension as a\ncriterion of similarity between movements, we show that the\nsimulated pendulum controller can make an action toward the\ngoal, toward which other’s incomplete action was made, but\nwas not observable in behavior due to its failure.",
