From Sign Language Generation to Humanoid Execution: Vision-Language Guided Retargeting with Collision Mitigation
Nabeela Khan, Bowen Wu, Runwu Shi +5
Recent sign language generation (SLG) systems increasingly output dense 3D body representations, which better preserve full-body kinematics and geometry for downstream embodiment o…
What Do Humans Hear When Interacting? Experiments on Selective Listening for Evaluating ASR of Spoken Dialogue Systems
Kiyotada Mori, Seiya Kawano, Chaoran Liu +3
Spoken dialogue systems (SDSs) utilize automatic speech recognition (ASR) at the front end of their pipeline. The role of ASR in SDSs is to recognize information in user speech rel…
Quadrupedal Spine Control Strategies: Exploring Correlations Between System Dynamic Responses and Human Perspectives
Nicholas Hafner, Chaoran Liu, Carlos Ishi +1
Unlike their biological cousins, the majority of existing quadrupedal robots are constructed with rigid chassis. This results in motion that is either beetle-like or distinctly rob…
I Know Your Feelings Before You Do: Predicting Future Affective Reactions in Human-Computer Dialogue
Yuanchao Li, Koji Inoue, Leimin Tian +5
Current Spoken Dialogue Systems (SDSs) often serve as passive listeners that respond only after receiving user speech. To achieve human-like dialogue, we propose a novel future pre…
