Demo: Have a Chat with Sensitive Artificial Listeners

چکیده
Sensitive Artificial Listeners (SAL) are virtual dialogue partners based on audiovisual analysis and synthesis. Despite their very limited verbal understanding, they intend to engage the user in a conversation by paying attention to the user’s emotions and nonverbal expressions.
