TL;DR: A broad definition of “animate character” is offered, and the technical and artistic issues involved both in the creation and the evaluation of such systems are examined.
Abstract: The world of everyday interactions is filled with characters, real or fictitious, and human knowledge of how to make these interactions satisfying and productive relies upon an understanding of character. As agents become more intelligent and more ubiquitous, we may naturally ask how we can endow them with life and personality to make them easier and more gratifying to use. This paper offers a broad definition of “animate character,” and examines the technical and artistic issues involved both in the creation and the evaluation of such systems. We provide example interactions with several character types. The paper concludes with an annotated bibliographic survey of work done in this area.

19 Jun 1992TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method and apparatus for determining at least one of a character and a destination therefor in accordance with a received signal representing at least 1 of a plurality of characters and one of the character languages.
Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining at least one of a character and a destination therefor in accordance with a received signal representing at least one of a plurality of characters and at least one character corresponding to at least one of a plurality of languages. Likelihood values for at least one of plurality of characters and each of the languages are evaluated, and at least one of the plurality of characters and one of the character languages are selected in accordance with the evaluated likelihood values thereof.

TL;DR: The experimental evidence is seen to support Luneburg’s hypothesis as to the hyperbolic character of visual space, and the relation between visual and physical coordinates proposed by Lunesburg is found to hold only as a special case of a more general transformation.
Abstract: A theoretical treatment of binocular space perception based on the methods of Rudolph K. Luneburg. A simplified axiomatics is employed. New experimental results are brought within the framework of the theory. The experimental evidence is seen to support Luneburg’s hypothesis as to the hyperbolic character of visual space. The relation between visual and physical coordinates proposed by Luneburg is found to hold only as a special case of a more general transformation.
