Journal ArticleDOI
Audio-Facial Laughter Detection in Naturalistic Dyadic Conversations
TL;DR: The experiments show that the multimodal approach supported by bagging compares favorably to the state of the art in presence of detrimental factors such as cross-talk, environmental noise, and data imbalance.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
View subspaces for indexing and retrieval of 3D models
TL;DR: Data driven subspace models, such as Principal Component Analysis, Independent Component Analysis and Nonnegative Matrix Factorization are explored to describe the shape information of the views to show the benefit of categorizing shapes according to their eigenvalue spread.
Book ChapterDOI
Density-based shape descriptors for 3d object retrieval
TL;DR: A probabilistic framework that computes 3D shape descriptors in a more rigorous and accurate manner than usual histogram-based methods for the purpose of 3D object retrieval and explores descriptor fusion schemes.
Journal ArticleDOI
A quadratic motion-based object-oriented video codec
TL;DR: A novel motion-based object-oriented codec for video transmission at very low bit-rates is proposed and a context-based shape coding method which takes into account the image synthesis error as well as the geometric distortion is proposed.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Engagement Rewarded Actor-Critic with Conservative Q-Learning for Speech-Driven Laughter Backchannel Generation
TL;DR: In this paper, a speech-driven laughter backchannel generation model is proposed to reward engagement during human-agent interaction, where speech signal represents the state and the objective is to maximize human engagement.
