Hydrodynamic-based microfluidic platforms enable single-cell arraying and analysis over time. Despite the advantages of established microfluidic systems, long-term analysis and proliferation of cells selected in such devices require off-chip recovery of ce ...
We address the problem of automatically predicting group performance on a task, using multimodal features derived from the group conversation. These include acoustic features extracted from the speech signal, and linguistic features derived from the conver ...
Overlapping speech has been identified as one of the main sources of errors in diarization of meeting room conversations. Therefore, overlap detection has become an important step prior to speaker diarization. Studies on conversational analysis have shown ...
Background: Analyzing spatial distributions of objects in images is a fundamental task in many biological studies. The relative arrangement of a set of objects with respect to another set of objects contains information about potential interactions between ...
This study proposes a semi-automatic approach aimed at detecting conflict in conversations. The approach is based on statistical techniques capable of identifying turn-organization regularities associated with conflict. The only manual step of the process ...
This paper describes preliminary results of a research performed in the framework of the Enactive project (EU IST NoE Enactive). The aim of this research is to improve believability of a virtual character using qualitative analysis of gesture. Using techni ...

An increasing awareness of the scientific and technological value of the automatic understanding of faceto- face social interaction has motivated in the past few years a surge of interest in the devising of computational techniques for conversational analy ...
