Interesting! I also thought about robot battery state and "gut feeling" being related in my previous research.

Multimodal AI: Detecting Facial Expressions and Nodding in Conversations
By
–
It will also be interesting to see if eventually the system could detect dynamic inputs like nodding or facial expressions, not only voice. Right now people also can't express overlaps like "uh huh" without interrupting, it would be cool to be able to have more parallel flow.

Multimodal AI improves speech by analyzing gaze and vocal patterns
By
–
One other thing I noticed is that people still had to speak without stopping. Notice how they never take a breath or pause? Multimodal can address this by looking at where someone is gazing and whether they're using umms and uhhs. https://

Benchmarking GPT-4o for Contextual Emotion Recognition in HRI
By
–
In my HRI lab, the main issue that we have been trying to tackle is precision over many categories and contextual emotion recognition. Gpt-4o needs to be benchmarked properly to compare it to current research (paper forthcoming).

Embodiment and Acoustic Context in Human-Robot Interaction Systems

I would need to try it out also to know more, to see how it handles other examples. They only demo'd a smile. And HRI thinks a lot about embodiment. For example we should take into account acoustic context eg. https://

Multimodal Emotion Analysis: Early Fusion Techniques and Historical Context
By
–
I agree that the integration is impressive, esp. early fusion of 3 modalities at scale. But multimodal emotion analysis and other kinds of fusion have been well studied, check out work by @lpmorency I also worked on this ~10 years ago using late fusion

Yes! This is why my lab is called Robots with Social Intelligence and Empathy… without empathy and care for the humans, social intelligence can result in manipulation, psychopathy
