Towards Recognizing Emotion in the Latent Space

Emotion recognition is usually achieved by collecting features (physiological signals, events, facial expressions, etc.) to predict an emotional ground truth. This ground truth is arguably unreliable due to its subjective nature. In this paper, we introduc ...

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 ...

A multitasking and data-driven architecture for multi-agents simulations

Sébastien Schertenleib

The expansion of 3D real-time simulations (3DRTS) into millions of homes together with the technical progress of computers hardware force to approach software developments for 3DRTS from different perspectives. From an historical standpoint, 3DRTS started ...
