BACKGROUND Human societies exhibit a rich array of gestures with cultural origins. Often these gestures are found exclusively in local populations, where their meaning has been crafted by a community into a shared convention. In nonhuman primates like African monkeys, little evidence exists for such culturally-conventionalized gestures. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Here I report a striking ...
متن کاملTowards Meaningful Robot Gesture
Humanoid robot companions that are intended to engage in natural and fluent human-robot interaction are supposed to combine speech with non-verbal modalities for comprehensible and believable behavior. We present an approach to enable the humanoid robot ASIMO to flexibly produce and synchronize speech and co-verbal gestures at run-time, while not being limited to a predefined repertoire of moto...
متن کاملDouble dissociation between meaningful and meaningless gesture reproduction in apraxia.
A model of the normal processing of gestures to account for the complexity of the different patterns of apraxia has been proposed by Rothi et al. (1991; 1997) and recently refined by Cubelli et al. (2000). This model, in analogy with the dual-route models of reading (e.g., Coltheart et al., 1993) encompasses three processing components1: (i) A “lexical route” which supports recognition (action ...

متن کاملUsing genetic algorithms to create meaningful poetic text
This paper presents a series of experiments in automatically generating poetic texts. We confined our attention to the generation of texts which are syntactically well-formed, meet certain pre-specified patterns of metre, and broadly convey some given meaning. Such aspects can be formally defined, thus avoiding the complications of imagery and interpretation that are central to assessing more f...
