—The work described in this paper is about building a general model capable of simulating human behaviour and emotions using virtual characters. To make the simulation realistic ...
—The perception of emotion is critical for social interactions. Nonlinguistic signals such as those in the human voice and musical instruments are used for communicating emotion....
—Automatic analysis of affect from facial expressions has been extensively studied, but most work has considered only a small set of discrete emotions, typically Ekman’s six ba...
Business process models expressed in UML activity diagrams can specify the flow of stateful business objects among activities. Such business process models implicitly specify the ...
Embedding computing power in a physical environment has provided the functional flexibility and performance necessary in modern products such as automobiles, aircraft, smartphones...
: We generate synthetic elections using two sources of survey data, two spatial models, and two standard models from the voting literature, IAC and IC. For each election that we ge...

We use the citizen-candidate model to study the differential incentives that alternative voting rules provide for candidate entry, and their effect on policy polarization. In pa...
We consider the notion of Pareto optimality under the assumption that only the pairwise majority relation is known and show that the set of necessarily Pareto optimal alternatives ...
We characterize a rule for aggregating binary evaluations that is similar in spirit to the Borda rule from the preference aggregation literature. The framework of binary evaluatio...
Abstract Recent progress using geometry in the design of efficient Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms have shown the effectiveness of the Fisher Riemannian structure. Furt...
