Implementing Expressive Gesture Synthesis for Embodied Conversational Agents
We aim at creating an expressive Embodied Conversational Agent (ECA) and address the problem of synthesizing expressive agent gestures. In our previous work, we have described the ...

Design and evaluation of expressive gesture synthesis for embodied conversational agents
To increase the believability and life-likeness of Embodied Conversational Agents (ECAs), we introduce a behavior synthesis technique for the generation of expressive gesturing. A...
