Emblematic Gestures Recognition
This paper presents a framework allowing emblematic gestures detection, segmentation and their recognition for human-robots interaction purposes. This framework is based on a new coding of arms’ kinematics reflecting both the muscular activity of the performer and the appearance of arm seen by the recipient when a gesture is performed. Following that, gestures can be seen as sequences of torque...
متن کاملGenetic Admixture and Flavor Preferences: Androstenone Sensitivity in Malagasy Populations.
The genetic basis of androstenone anosmia has been well studied due to androstenone's putative role as a human sex pheromone and its presence in pork meat. Polymorphisms have been identified on the olfactory receptor gene OR7D4, which significantly affect perception of androstenone pleasantness and intensity in several Western populations. This study aims to investigate androstenone sensitivity...
متن کاملTalker Versus Dialect Effects on Speech Intelligibility: A Symmetrical Study.
This study investigates the relative effects of talker-specific variation and dialect-based variation on speech intelligibility. Listeners from two dialects of American English performed speech-in-noise tasks with sentences spoken by talkers of each dialect. An initial statistical model showed no significant effects for either talker or listener dialect group, and no interaction. However, a mix...
متن کاملDialect identification versus evaluation of risk in language screening.
This article proposes that any dialect-neutral screening test should consist of two parts: one part using contrastive items to screen for Language Variation Status (Mainstream American English [MAE] or a degree of variation from MAE), and a second part using noncontrastive items to screen for degree of risk for language disorder (low, medium, or high). The two scores are interpreted together in...
