Abstract While we are capable of modeling the shape, e.g. face, arms, etc. of humanoid robots in a nearly natural or humanlike way, it is much more di cult to generate human-like facial or body movements and human-like behavior like e.g. speaking and co-speech gesturing. In this paper it will be argued for a developmental robotics approach for learning to speak. On the basis of cur...

Empirical evidence shows that entrepreneurs hold a large fraction of wealth, have higher saving rates than workers, and face substantial uninsurable entrepreneurial and investment risks.

Preliminary results indicate that female pairs used more language of fairness, saving face, and acknowledgement in their conversation than did male pairs. Male pairs made more procedural statements about meeting management an...

Results show that the interpretative flexibility of the technology gave rise to conflicting translations, causing continuous realignments of competing networks enacted through battles of wills and face-saving strategies. We argue that to understand and foresee the complex interactions betwee...

This paper describes a multi-modal corpus of hand-annotated meeting dialogues that was designed for studying addressing behavior in face-to-face conversations. The corpus contains annotated dialogue acts, addressees, adjacency pairs and gaze direction. First, we describe the corpus design where we present the annotation schema, annotation tools and annotation process itself. Then, we analyze th...
