Taiga Mori, Koji Inoue, Divesh Lala +1
In multi-party dialogues between a dialogue system and multiple users, identifying to whom an utterance is addressed is a key challenge. Prior work has typically treated addressee…
Real-time Generation of Listener Nodding via Prediction of Kinematic Parameters for Avatar Dialogue Systems
Kazushi Kato, Koji Inoue, Taiga Mori +2
The paper introduces a lightweight, real-time model that predicts both the timing and motion parameters of listener nodding for conversational avatars, using a dyadic attention net…
Multilingual and Continuous Backchannel Prediction: A Cross-lingual Study
Koji Inoue, Mikey Elmers, Yahui Fu +5
We present a multilingual, continuous backchannel prediction model for Japanese, English, and Chinese, and use it to investigate cross-linguistic timing behavior. The model is Tran…
Triadic Multi-party Voice Activity Projection for Turn-taking in Spoken Dialogue Systems
Mikey Elmers, Koji Inoue, Divesh Lala +1
Turn-taking is a fundamental component of spoken dialogue, however conventional studies mostly involve dyadic settings. This work focuses on applying voice activity projection (VAP…
Why Report Failed Interactions With Robots?! Towards Vignette-based Interaction Quality
Agnes Axelsson, Merle Reimann, Ronald Cumbal +2
Although the quality of human-robot interactions has improved with the advent of LLMs, there are still various factors that cause systems to be sub-optimal when compared to human-h…
Real-time Generation of Various Types of Nodding for Avatar Attentive Listening System
Kazushi Kato, Koji Inoue, Divesh Lala +2
In human dialogue, nonverbal information such as nodding and facial expressions is as crucial as verbal information, and spoken dialogue systems are also expected to express such n…
