This paper introduces Art_GenEvalGPT, a novel dataset of synthetic dialogues centered on art generated through ChatGPT. Unlike existing datasets focused on conventional art-related tasks, Art_GenEvalGPT delves into nuanced conversations about art, encompassing a wide variety of artworks, artists, and genres, and incorporating emotional interventions, integrating speakers' subjective opinions and different roles for the conversational agents (e.g.

This paper proposes a new preprocessing module to reduce the negative impact of sensor-orientation variability in HAR. Firstly, this module estimates a consistent reference system; then, the tri-axial signals recorded from sensors with different orientations are transformed into this consistent reference system.

In this paper, we propose a multimodal emotion recognition system that relies on speech and facial information. For the speech-based modality, we evaluated several transfer-learning techniques, more specifically, embedding extraction and Fine-Tuning.

In order to demonstrate the generation of affect through the use of the model, we describe the work of integrating it with a natural-language mixed-initiative HiFi-control spoken conversational agent (SCA). NEMO and the host system communicate externally, removing the need for the Dialog Manager to be modified, as is done in most existing dialog systems, in order to be adaptive.
