Abstract

This paper presents an approach to model the gaze behavior of an Embodied Conversational Agent in a real time multimodal dialogue interaction with a group of users. The ECA’s gaze control results from the merge of the outputs of a rational dialogue engine based on natural language interaction and face tracking of users.
