Abstract

Our method automatically generates realistic nonverbal performances for virtual characters to accompany spoken utterances. It analyses the acoustic, syntactic, semantic and rhetorical properties of the utterance text and audio signal to generate nonverbal behavior such as such as head movements, eye saccades, and novel gesture animations based on co-articulation.
