Influences and Embodied Conversational Agents

We aim at creating an Embodied Conversational Agent (ECA) that would exhibit not only a consistent behavior with her personality and contextual environment factors but also that would be defined as an individual and not as a generic agent. The behavior of an agent depends not only on factors defining her individuality (such as her culture, her social and professional role, her personality, her experience) but also on a large set of contextual and dynamic influences.
