Maha Salem, "Effects of Humanlike Conversational Behavior on the Perception of Psychological Anthropomorphism: A Case Study with a Humanoid Robot", ICSR 2011 : International Conference on Social Robotics 2011, 2011.

Abstract

Previous work has shown that typically human conversa- tional behaviors such as gesturing increase anthropomorphic inferences about artificial communicators such as virtual agents. In an experiment with a humanoid robot, we investigated how far humanlike gesturing be- havior would affect anthropomorphic inferences about the robot. Partic- ularly, we examined the effects of the robot’s gesturing behaviors on the attribution of typically human tr...

Martin Heckmann and Claudius Gläser, "Discriminant Sub-Space Projection of Spectro-Temporal Speech Features based on Maximizing Mutual Information", Proc. INTERSPEECH, 2011.

Abstract

We previously developed noise robust Hierarchical Spectro-Temporal (HIST) speech features. The learning of the features was performed in an unsupervised way with unlabeled speech data. In a final stage we deployed Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to reduce the feature dimensions and to diagonalize them. In this paper we investigate if a discriminant projection can further increase the performance. We maximize the mutual information between the ...

Martin Heckmann, Xavier Domont, Frank Joublin, Christian Goerick, "A Hierarchical Framework for Spectro-Temporal Feature Extraction", Speech Communication, vol. 53, no. 5, pp. 736 - 752, 2011.

Abstract

In this paper we present a hierarchical framework for the extraction of spectro-temporal acoustic features. The design of the features targets higher robustness in dynamic environments. Motivated by the large gap between human and machine performance in such conditions we take inspirations from the organization of the mammalian auditory cortex in the design of our features. This includes the joint processing of spectral and temporal information, ...

Abstract

Humanoid robots are intended to act and interact in dynamically changing environments in the presence of humans. Current robotic systems are usually able to move in dynamically changing environments because of an inbuilt depth and obstacle sensing. However, for acting in their environment the internal representation of such systems is usually constructed by hand and known in advance. In contrast in this paper, we present a system that dynamically...

Claudius Gläser and Frank Joublin, "Firing Rate Homeostasis for Dynamic Neural Field Formation", IEEE Transactions on Autonomous Mental Development, 2011.

Abstract

Dynamic neural fields are recurrent neural networks which aim at modeling cortical activity evolution both in space and time. A self-organized formation of these fields has been rarely explored previously. The main reason for this is that learning-induced changes in effective connectivity constitute a severe problem with respect to network stability. In this paper we present a novel network model which is able to self-organize even in face of exp...
