Abstract

The design of an affect recognition system for socially perceptive robots relies on representative data: human-robot interaction in naturalistic settings requires an affect recognition system to be trained and validated with contextualised affective expressions, that is, expressions that emerge in the same interaction scenario of the target application. In this paper we propose an initial computational model to automatically analyse human postures and body motion to detect engagement of children playing chess with an iCat robot that acts as a game companion. Our approach is based on vision-based automatic extraction of expressive postural features from videos capturing the behaviour of the children from a lateral view. An initial evaluation, conducted by training several recognition models with contextualised affective postural expressions, suggests that patterns of postural behaviour can be used to accurately predict the engagement of the children with the robot, thus making our approach suitable for integration into an affect recognition system for a game companion in a real world scenario.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
