While a wide range of work exists in automatic co-speech gesture generation, automatic generation of meaningful (iconic) gestures is still an open issue. To dig into the topic, first, we will focus on speech-gesture generation and understanding from cognitive theoretical & empirical perspectives. In this part we will review the literature about predominant cognitive approaches to speech and gesture which forms the base of our seminar. Second, we will address the advanced applied perspective. Whereby, the major focus of the seminar will be on the uptodate approaches to automatic gesture generation.
The seminar will be structured as follows: for each session 1-2 student presentations (30 min. each) about the selected papers will be given. Other participants will read one of these papers in order to be able to take part in the discussion (~15 min.). In order to obtain the credit points, essays will be written after at the end of the seminar.
-------------------IMPORTANT-------------------
We will start the seminar ONLINE on 8/10/2021 at 10:15. This will be the preperatory session where the papers will be selected. Please make sure to be there in order to get an introduction and to be able to select a paper for your presentation. During the next 2 weeks you will be able to select the paper (if not already done) and prepare the presentation. The following session (after the preparatory meeting) will be in presence on 29/10/2021. The Zoom link will be in the LernRaum.
