Study on Sensitivity to ECA Behavior Parameters
نویسندگان
چکیده
Embodied conversational agents (ECAs) provide one possible way of incorporating nonverbal portion of speech into voice based user interfaces. Part of agent’s visual behavior and its appearance is often solved “statically.” There is another possibility to change appearance – dynamically (for example head or eye movements, mouth opening, etc.). Our hypothesis is that some “dynamic” parameters are more important for the user than the other ones. In this paper we present the pilot user study and statistical evaluation of four parameters. Eye blinking is one of the parameter we investigate. The importance of agent’s gaze (blinking as part of it) was discussed several times for example by Raidt [1].

Effects of ionic parameters on behavior of a skeletal muscle fiber model
All living cells have a membrane which separates inside the cell from it's outside. There is a potential difference between inside and outside of the cell. This potential difference will change during an action potential. It is quite common to peruse action potentials of skeletal muscle fibers with the Hodgkin-Huxley model. Since Hodgkin and Huxley summarized some controlling currents like inwa...

متن کاملEffects of stathmin 1 silencing by siRNA on sensitivity of esophageal cancer cells Eca-109 to paclitaxel.
We investigated the effects of stathmin 1 (STMN1) silencing by small interfering (siRNA) on the sensitivity of esophageal cancer cells Eca-109 to paclitaxel. STMN1 siRNA was transiently transfected into Eca-109 cells. The effects of transfection were detected by quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blotting. The effects of STMN1 silencing by siRNA on the sensitivity of esophageal ...
متن کاملResidential Load Manageability Factor Analyses by Load Sensitivity Affected by Temperature
Load side management is the basic and significant principle to keeping the balance between generation side and consumption side of electrical power energy. Load side management on typical medium voltage feeder is the power energy consumption control of connected loads with variation of essential parameters that loads do reaction to their variation. Knowing amount of load's reaction to each para...
