Facial expressions are an ideal means of communicating one's emotions or intentions to others. This overview will focus on human facial expression recognition as well as robotic facial expression generation. In the case of human facial…
Psychological research results have confirmed that people can have different emotional reactions to different visual stimuli. Several papers have been published on the problem of visual emotion analysis. In particular, attempts have been…
Proxemics, the study of spatial behavior, is fundamental to social interaction and increasingly relevant for virtual reality (VR) applications. While previous research has established that users respond to personal space violations in VR…
When performing complex tasks, humans naturally reason at multiple temporal and spatial resolutions simultaneously. We contend that for an artificially intelligent agent to effectively model human teammates, i.e., demonstrate computational…
This study investigates the efficacy of facial micro-expressions as a soft biometric for enhancing person recognition, aiming to broaden the understanding of the subject and its potential applications. We propose a deep learning approach…
Humans perform visual perception at multiple levels, including low-level object recognition and high-level semantic interpretation such as behavior understanding. Subtle differences in low-level details can lead to substantial changes in…
Facial mimicry - the automatic, unconscious imitation of others' expressions - is vital for emotional understanding. This study investigates how mimicry differs across emotions using Face Action Units from videos and participants'…
We present an experiment exploring how the controller's virtual representation impacts target acquisition performance across MR and VR contexts. Participants performed selection tasks comparing four visual configurations: a virtual…
Face recognition of realistic visual images has been well studied and made a significant progress in the recent decade. Unlike the realistic visual images, the face recognition of the caricatures is far from the performance of the visual…
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have remarkably progressed in analyzing and understanding images. Despite these advancements, accurately regressing values in charts remains an underexplored area for MLLMs. For visualization, how do…
We propose a method for generating video-realistic animations of real humans under user control. In contrast to conventional human character rendering, we do not require the availability of a production-quality photo-realistic 3D model of…
This paper presents a new technique for the virtual reality (VR) visu-alization of complex volume images obtained from computer tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) by combining three-dimensional (3D) mesh processing and…
Psychological studies have shown that Micro Gestures (MG) are closely linked to human emotions. MG-based emotion understanding has attracted much attention because it allows for emotion understanding through nonverbal body gestures without…
Recent studies on machine reading comprehension have focused on text-level understanding but have not yet reached the level of human understanding of the visual layout and content of real-world documents. In this study, we introduce a new…
There is an intricate relation between the properties of an image and how humans behave while describing the image. This behavior shows ample variation, as manifested in human signals such as eye movements and when humans start to describe…
Representation is the way in which human beings re-present the reality of what is happening, both externally and internally. Thus, visual representation as a means of communication uses elements to build a narrative, just as spoken and…
Identification within media, whether with real or fictional characters, significantly impacts users, shaping their behavior and enriching their social and emotional experiences. Immersive media, like video games, utilize virtual entities…
With the popularity of online access in virtual reality (VR) devices, it will become important to investigate exclusive and interactive CAPTCHA (Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart) designs for VR…
Although pervasive sensing technologies are increasingly capable of continuously detecting human emotional states, there is still a critical challenge: how to unobtrusively communicate this sensed data back to the user. Realistic avatars…
Recent advancements in multimodal large language models have driven breakthroughs in visual question answering. Yet, a critical gap persists, `conceptualization'-the ability to recognize and reason about the same concept despite variations…
