Motion transfer of talking-head videos involves generating a new video with the appearance of a subject video and the motion pattern of a driving video. Current methodologies primarily depend on a limited number of subject images and 2D…
Automated co-located human-human interaction analysis has been addressed by the use of nonverbal communication as measurable evidence of social and psychological phenomena. We survey the computing studies (since 2010) detecting phenomena…
We present a novel method for detecting speaking persons in video, by extracting facial landmarks with a neural network and analysing these landmarks statistically over time
Joint vision-language models have shown great performance over a diverse set of tasks. However, little is known about their limitations, as the high dimensional space learned by these models makes it difficult to identify semantic errors.…
Although few-shot learning has attracted much attention from the fields of image and audio classification, few efforts have been made on few-shot speaker identification. In the task of few-shot learning, overfitting is a tough problem…
The advancement of computer vision has pushed visual analysis tasks from still images to the video domain. In recent years, video instance segmentation, which aims to track and segment multiple objects in video frames, has drawn much…
In this paper, we consider the task of spotting spoken keywords in silent video sequences -- also known as visual keyword spotting. To this end, we investigate Transformer-based models that ingest two streams, a visual encoding of the video…
Inspired by recent work in meta-learning and generative teaching networks, we propose a framework called Generative Conversational Networks, in which conversational agents learn to generate their own labelled training data (given some seed…
Project-based learning plays a crucial role in computing education. However, its open-ended nature makes tracking project development and assessing success challenging. We investigate how dialogue and system interaction logs predict project…
Joint audio-video generation models have shown that unified generation yields stronger cross-modal coherence than cascaded approaches. However, existing models couple modalities throughout denoising via pervasive attention, treating…
The problem of identifying voice commands has always been a challenge due to the presence of noise and variability in speed, pitch, etc. We will compare the efficacies of several neural network architectures for the speech recognition…
Voice activity detection (VAD) improves the performance of speaker verification (SV) by preserving speech segments and attenuating the effects of non-speech. However, this scheme is not ideal: (1) it fails in noisy environments or…
This study considers the problem of detecting and locating an active talker's horizontal position from multichannel audio captured by a microphone array. We refer to this as active speaker detection and localization (ASDL). Our goal was to…

Audio-driven talking video generation has advanced significantly, but existing methods often depend on video-to-video translation techniques and traditional generative networks like GANs and they typically generate taking heads and…
In many applications of multi-microphone multi-device processing, the synchronization among different input channels can be affected by the lack of a common clock and isolated drops of samples. In this work, we address the issue of sample…
Action recognition is a critical task for social robots to meaningfully engage with their environment. 3D human skeleton-based action recognition is an attractive research area in recent years. Although, the existing approaches are good at…
Long-term object detection requires the integration of frame-based results over several seconds. For non-deformable objects, long-term detection is often addressed using object detection followed by video tracking. Unfortunately, tracking…
