The Relationship between Virtual Self Similarity and Social Anxiety

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014
In virtual reality (VR) it is possible to embody avatars that are dissimilar to the physical self. We examined whether embodying a dissimilar self in VR would decrease anxiety in a public speaking situation.

Simulating Noisy Channel Interaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We show that $T$ rounds of interaction over the binary symmetric channel $BSC_{1/2-\epsilon}$ with feedback can be simulated with $O(\epsilon^2 T)$ rounds of interaction over a noiseless channel.

Beyond learning with cold machine: interpersonal communication skills as anthropomorphic cue of AI instructor

open access: yesInternational Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education
Prior research has explored the impact of diverse anthropomorphic interventions on the effectiveness of AI (artificial intelligence) instructors. However, the exploration of interpersonal communication skills (e.g., self-disclosure) as anthropomorphic ...

What influences the selection of contextual cues when starting a new routine behaviour? An exploratory study

open access: yesBMC Psychology, 2020
Background Contextual cues play an important role in facilitating behaviour change. They not only support memory but may also help to make the new behaviour automatic through the formation of new routines.

Learning a DFT-based sequence with reinforcement learning: a NAO implementation

open access: yesPaladyn, 2012
The implementation of sequence learning in robotic platforms offers several challenges. Deciding when to stop one action and continue to the next requires a balance between stability of sensory information and, of course, the knowledge about what action ...

Expertise affects representation structure and categorical activation of grasp postures in climbing

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2014
In indoor rock climbing, the perception of object properties and the adequate execution of grasping actions highly determine climbers’ performance. In two consecutive experiments, effects of climbing expertise on the cognitive activation of grasping ...

Contextualised learning‐free three‐dimensional body pose estimation from two‐dimensional body features in monocular images

open access: yesIET Computer Vision, 2016
In this study, the authors present a learning‐free method for inferring kinematically plausible three‐dimensional (3D) human body poses contextualised in a predefined 3D world, given a set of 2D body features extracted from monocular images.
