| Abstract: | This paper presents a model for simulating cultural differences
in the conversational behavior of virtual agents. The model provides
parameters for differences in proxemics, gaze and overlap in turn
taking.We present a review of literature on these factors and show results
of a study where native speakers of North American English, Mexican
Spanish and Arabic were asked to rate the realism of the simulations
generated based on different cultural parameters with respect to their
culture. |
