Towards building an attentive artificial listener: on the perception of attentiveness in audio-visual feedback tokens

Jean-Marc Odobez, Kenneth Alberto Funes Mora, Catharine Regina Monika Maria Oertel Genannt Bierbach, Yu Yu

Current dialogue systems typically lack a variation of audio-visual feedback tokens. Either they do not encompass feedback tokens at all, or only support a limited set of stereotypical functions. However, this does not mirror the subtleties of spontaneous ...

Intensive travel time: an obligation or a choice?

Stéphanie Vincent

This paper explores what prompts some individuals to spend a significant amount of time travelling. In the literature, travel time tends to be regarded as useless, unproductive time and, in some cases, as the worst time of the day. The actual behaviour of ...

Aging and perception

Michael Herzog, Aaron Michael Clarke

The developed world is aging faster than ever before. Even in the absence of neurodegenerative disease, aging affects all kinds of human functions including perception and cognition. In most perceptual studies, one paradigm is tested and it is usually foun ...

Evaluating spatial ambiences through daylight variability, contrast and view

Kynthia Chamilothori

This research aims to give insight into the aesthetic aspect of the spatial and temporal diversity of light in space through experimental studies. By using empirical methods to establish a relationship of spatial contrast, daylight variability and view out ...

Aging of asymmetric dynamics on the random energy model

Jean-Christophe Mourrat

We show aging of Glauber-type dynamics on the random energy model, inthe sense that we obtain the annealed scaling limits of the clock process and of theage process. The latter encodes the Gibbs weight of the configuration occupied by thedynamics. Both lim ...

Obligatory averaging in mean size perception

Aire Raidvee

The perception of ensemble characteristics is often regarded as an antidote to an established bottleneck in focused attention and working memory, both of which appear to be limited in capacity to a few objects only. In order to test the associative law of ...

The time of perception and the perception of time are not identical

Michael Herzog

Often it is assumed that the time of perception is identical or tightly linked to the perception of time. For example, we can clearly perceive a 20 ms delay of two squares presented one after the other at nearby locations (leading to the percept of apparen ...

Design and durability of titanium adhesive joints for marine applications

Véronique Michaud, Sébastien Lavanchy, Basile Golaz

Comparative measurements of strength and Griffith's critical strain energy release rate G(Ic) were carried out on adhesively bonded joints with different surface treatments of titanium, before and along 13 weeks of accelerated aging in salted or deionized ...

Mitochondrial ribosomal proteins as aging regulators

Johan Auwerx, Laurent Mouchiroud, Richardus Houtkooper

The present invention relates to methods of increasing lifespan, delaying aging, and/or preventing or treating an age-related disease or a mitochondrialdisease in a subject, comprising inducing a nuclear-mitochondrial OXPHOS protein dyssynchrony, including ...

Aging biomarkers

Johan Auwerx, Richardus Houtkooper

The present invention relates to novel biomarkers for aging and healthspan, methods and uses thereof, in particular, for determining the biological age of a subject and/or preventing or delaying aging process in a subject, and kits for use in said methods. ...
