چکیده
This paper describes the design, implementation and evaluation of an interactive virtual human Dr. Chestr: Computerized Host Encouraging Students to Review. Game show hosts exert a unique personality that becomes the trademark of their respective game shows. Our aim is to create virtual humans that can interact naturally and spontaneously using speech, emotions and gesture. Dr. Chestr is our virtual game show host that exhibits a personality designed to increase user engagement. Dr. Chestr is designed to test users with questions about the C++ programming language and allows the user to communicate using the most natural form of interaction, speech. We present the architecture and user evaluations of the Dr. Chestr Game Show.

Coordinated resource scheduling in a large scale virtual power plant considering demand response and energy storages
Virtual power plant (VPP) is an effective approach to aggregate distributed generation resources under a central control. This paper introduces a mixed-integer linear programming model for optimal scheduling of the internal resources of a large scale VPP in order to maximize its profit. The proposed model studies the effect of a demand response (DR) program on the scheduling of the VPP. The pro...

متن کاملExploring the Uncanny Valley with Japanese Video Game Characters
Dr. Masahiro Mori’s robotics design theory, the Uncanny Valley, has become a common reference in virtual character design. The theory holds that robots whose appearance is very close to being human, but not fully, will evoke a very negative human reaction. The theory is often referenced in design outside of robots, especially in video games, but there is very little data to support this applica...
