Social Signals, their Function, and Automatic Analysis: A Survey

Hervé Bourlard, Alessandro Vinciarelli

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 ...

Acceleration and inclination sensors based on magnetic levitation

François Barrot

Some fields such as the Monitoring of Civil Engineering Structures, need very sensitive acceleration and inclination sensors with a high resolution at low accelerations (typically less than 1G) and moderate frequencies (typically less than 20 Hz) or very s ...

A simple, adaptive locomotion toy-system

Auke Ijspeert, Jonas Buchli

In order to make the transfer of biological principles to engineering problems successful, it is important to study the fundamental properties of biological systems. The goal is to arrive with useful abstractions that are (1) implementable, (2) testable by ...
