© 2014 Elsevier B.V. Previous work on 3D action recognition has focused on using hand-designed features, either from depth videos or 2D videos. In this work, we present an effective way to combine unsupervised feature learning with discriminative fea...

© 2013 Taylor & Francis. The standard referring-expression generation task involves creating stand-alone descriptions intended solely to distinguish a target object from its context. However, when an artificial system refers to objects in the cours... Read More about Task-based evaluation of context-sensitive referring expressions in human–robot dialogue.

This paper describes a context-dependent social gaze-control system implemented as part of a humanoid social robot. The system enables the robot to direct its gaze at multiple humans who are interacting with each other and with the robot. The attenti...
