This paper addresses the problem of discovering conversational group dynamics from nonverbal cues extracted from thin-slices of interaction. We first propose and analyze a novel t...
Affect sensitivity is of the utmost importance for a robot companion to be able to display socially intelligent behaviour, a key requirement for sustaining long-term interactions ...
During multiparty meetings, participants can use non-verbal modalities such as hand gestures to make reference to the shared environment. Therefore, one hypothesis is that incorpo...
This article proposes an evaluation framework to benchmark the performance of multimodal fusion engines. The paper first introduces different concepts and techniques associated wi...
This article introduces HephaisTK, a toolkit for rapid prototyping of multimodal interfaces. After briefly discussing the state of the art, the architecture traits of the toolkit ...
Abstract. Increasing risks of spoof attacks and other common problems of unimodal biometric systems such as intra-class variations, nonuniversality and noisy data necessitate the u...

We present in this communication a new biometric system based on the use of hand veins acquired by an infrared imager. After the preprocessing stage and binarization, the vein imag...
In this paper, we propose a novel fuzzy 3D face ethnicity categorization algorithm, which contains two stages, learning and mapping. In learning stage, the visual codes are first l...
Many large-scale biometric systems operate in the identification mode and include multimodal information. While biometric fusion is a well-studied problem, most of the fusion schem...
