Nao is doing humour in the CHIST-ERA joker project

چکیده
We present automatic systems that implement multimodal social dialogues involving humour with the humanoid robot Nao for the 16th Interspeech conference. Humorous capabilities of the systems are based on three main techniques: riddles, challenging the human participant, and punctual interventions. The presented prototypes will automatically record and analyse audio and video streams to provide a real-time feedback. Using these systems, we expect to observe rich and varied reactions from international English-speaking volunteers to humorous stimuli triggered by Nao.

Benchmarking multimedia technologies with the CAMOMILE platform: the case of Multimodal Person Discovery at MediaEval 2015
In this paper, we claim that the CAMOMILE collaborative annotation platform (developed in the framework of the eponymous CHIST-ERA project) eases the organization of multimedia technology benchmarks, automating most of the campaign technical workflow and enabling collaborative (hence faster and cheaper) annotation of the evaluation data. This is demonstrated through the successful organization ...
متن کاملLaughter Detection for On-line Human-robot Interaction
This paper presents a study of laugh classification using a cross-corpus protocol. It aims at the automatic detection of laughs in a real-time human-machine interaction. Positive and negative laughs are tested with different classification tasks and different acoustic feature sets. F.measure results show an improvement on positive laughs classification from 59.5% to 64.5% and negative laughs re...
متن کاملA Regime View of the North Atlantic Oscillation and Its Response to Anthropogenic Forcing
The distribution of the daily wintertime North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) index in the 40-yr ECMWF ReAnalysis (ERA-40) is significantly negatively skewed. Dynamical and statistical analyses both suggest that this skewness reflects the presence of two distinct regimes—referred to as ‘‘Greenland blocking’’ and ‘‘subpolar jet.’’ Changes in both the relative occurrence and in the structure of the r...
متن کاملPassword Swordfish: Verbal Humour in the Interface
Humour will be a necessity in future interfaces, especially in the area at the crossroads of entertainment and education, the so called edutainment. Some considerations on the state of the art in natural langauge processing and on computational humour prospects are presented, as well as some ideas for the introduction of certain types of computational humour in seductive interfaces. In doing th...
متن کاملDiversification in an image retrieval system based on text and image processing
In this paper we present an image retrieval system created within the research project MUCKE (Multimedia and User Credibility Knowledge Extraction), a CHIST-ERA research project where UAIC is one of the partners. Our discussion in this work will focus mainly on components that are part of our image retrieval system proposed in MUCKE, and we present the work done by the UAIC group. MUCKE incorpo...
