Speaker Dependency Analysis, Audiovisual Fusion Cues and a Multimodal BLSTM for Conversational Engagement Recognition
Conversational engagement is a multimodal phenomenon and an essential cue to assess both human-human and human-robot communication. Speaker-dependent and speaker-independent scenarios were addressed in our engagement study. Handcrafted audio-visual features were used. Fixed window sizes for feature fusion method were analysed. Novel dynamic window size selection and multimodal bi-directional lo...
متن کاملLong-term Utilization of Interaction by Young EFL Learners: The Effects of Strategy Training
The bulk of research within the interactionist framework seems to be consensually pointing to the beneficial effects of interaction in SLA. However, few studies have investigated the role of training in providing and perceiving interactional feedback, especially among young learners. This study probed the effects of training prior to engagement in interaction in case of young learners acquiring...
متن کاملAn Experimental Study on Blinking and Eye Movement Detection via EEG Signals for Human-Robot Interaction Purposes Based on a Spherical 2-DOF Parallel Robot
Blinking and eye movement are one of the most important abilities that most people have, even people with spinal cord problem. By using this ability these people could handle some of their activities such as moving their wheelchair without the help of others. One of the most important fields in Human-Robot Interaction is the development of artificial limbs working with brain signals. The purpos...
متن کاملLong-term Child-Robot Tutoring Interactions: Lessons Learned
As social robots become more widely used as educational tutoring agents, it is important to study how children interact with these systems, and how effective they are as assessed by learning gains, sustained engagement, and perceptions of the robot tutoring system as a whole. In this paper, we summarize our prior work involving a long-term child-robot interaction study and outline important les...
متن کاملExtending Human-Robot Relationships Based in Music with Virtual Presence
Social relationships between humans and robots require both long term engagement and a feeling of believabilty or social presence towards the robot. It is our contention that music can provide the extended engagement that other open-ended interaction studies have failed to do, also, that in combination with the engaging musical interaction, the addition of simulated social behaviours is necessa...
