21. Prediktion av användaromdömen om språkcafé-samtal baserat på automatisk röstanalys
Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Sammanfattning : Spoken communication between humans generate information in two channels; the primary channel, linked to the syntactic-semantic part of the speech (what a person is litteraly saying); the secondary channel conveys paralinguistic information (tone, emotional state and gestures). This study examines the paralinguistic part of the speech, more specific the tone and emotional state. LÄS MER
22. “Do you want to take a short survey?” : Evaluating and improving the UX and VUI of a survey skill in the social robot Furhat: a qualitative case study
Kandidat-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för informatik (IK)Sammanfattning : The purpose of this qualitative case study is to evaluate an early stage survey skill developed for the social robot Furhat, and look into how the user experience (UX) and voice user interface (VUI) of that skill can be improved. Several qualitative methods have been used: expert evaluations using heuristics for human-robot interaction (HRI), user evaluations including observations and interviews, as well as a quantitative questionnaire (RoSAS – Robot Social Attribution Scale).
