Automatic analysis of social interactions attracts major attention in the computing community, but relatively few benchmarks are available to researchers active in the domain. This paper presents a new, publicly available, corpus of political debates inclu ...
How can the behaviour of humans who interact with other humans be simulated in virtual environments? This thesis investigates the issue by proposing a number of dedicated models, computer languages, software architectures, and specifications of computation ...
Automatic analysis of social interactions attracts increasing attention in the multimedia community. This paper considers one of the most important aspects of the problem, namely the roles played by individuals interacting in different settings. In particu ...
The current Social Web is centralized. Large information silos store all the users’ profiles, their social links and much of the other personal data. In return for the reliable service the users allow their data and activities to be data mined by the servi ...
This paper presents a computing model for resource-limited mobile devices that might be ubiquitously deployed in private and business environments. The model integrates a strongly-typed event-based communication paradigm with abstractions for frugal contro ...
Advances in CAAD and CAAM are reshaping both the products and the occupation of architecture. with these new technologies the traditional tasks that the architect undertakes are changing, and the possibilities are expanding. The traditional act of designin ...
Social Signal Processing (SSP) aims at the analysis of social behaviour in both Human-Human and Human-Computer interactions. SSP revolves around automatic sensing and interpretation of social signals, complex aggregates of nonverbal behaviours through whic ...
In this dissertation I examine information processing in communities of product technology users – that is the question of how individual level information exchange in networks of personal relationships influences firm-level outcomes. I draw on research in ...
The migration of media consumption to personal computers retains distributed social viewing, but only via nonsocial, strictly personal interfaces. This article presents an architecture, and implementation for media sharing that allows for enhanced social i ...
When people interact to communicate, a very important role is played by the face. In fact, thanks to it we can get information about our interlocutors: who they are, what they feel, what their intentions are, etc. Studies demonstrated that facial expressio ...
