Situation Exchange System Using Nonverbal Information for Remote Communication

Junko Itou, Yoko Mori and Jun Munemori

KES2011, Part III, LNAI6883  2011.09.11   KES International

　View Summary

In this article, we propose a system to communicate situation information of users and to exchange a message with nonverbal information for remote communication. People want to know a condition and a situation of a communication partner who stays at a remote location, such as a lover, a child and a parent who lives alone. The previous works on a support system for remote communication focused on awareness or synchronicity and the systems require extra devices. Therefore, we adopt a mobile phone as a device to support smooth remote communication and we develop a system exchanging easily users' situation information with nonverbal expressions that users can understand the contents intuitively. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.

情報処理学会研究報告  2011.02.11   情報処理学会

　View Summary

発想法支援システムが数々開発されている．我々は島名の入力文字数が短い時に警告文を出す KJ 法支援システム GUNGEN-TOUCH II を開発した．これは発想の質の向上を目指したものである．AHP を応用して島名の評価を行った．その結果，本機能を付加したシステムの方が，平均の島名の文字数が多くなり，付加していないシステムと比べて島名の評価は有意差がある高い結果となった．A lot of idea generation support system has been developed. We have developed a KJ method support system, which presents a warning sentence when the numbers of characters about names of islands is too short. This is because we aimed at the improvement of the quality of the idea generation. We evaluate the names of islands by using modified AHP. The results of the experiments show that the evaluation of the name of islands in the new system (GUNGEN-TOUCH II) is high significantly.

Remote Kenken: A networked real hopping game based on hopscotch

Jun Munemori, Hirotaka Yamashita, Junko Itou

2011 IEEE International Games Innovation Conference, IGIC 2011  2011   IEEE

　View Summary

An exertainment support system called Remote Kenken is proposed in this paper. The game resembles hopscotch. Pressure sensors are used to determine the position of the feet of a player and judge the accuracy of the steps during jumping. Victory or defeat is decided by the accuracy of the step and time required. The support system is networked to a server to allow the game to be played remotely by more than one player. Experiments were performed with players located in different rooms playing the game simultaneously. The test results suggest that the subjects could enjoy the game as an exercise and entertainment. The system also includes video and audio equipment for communication and awareness of the steps. © 2011 IEEE.

Analysis on Relationship between Smiley and Emotional Word Included in Chat Text

HUMAN INTERFACE AND THE MANAGEMENT OF INFORMATION: INTERACTING WITH INFORMATION, PT 2  2011   SPRINGER-VERLAG BERLIN

　View Summary

In this research, we analyze the relationships between smileys and emotional words in chat text aiming to apply these relationships to an embodied character chat system. Smileys add various meanings, especially mental information to plain chat texts to make our text communication successful. We focus on the way to use smileys and emotional words so that we can estimate the chat atmospheres. We performed an experiment to investigate the relationships between smileys and emotional words in chat dialogue.

Development of a distributed pictograph chat system: Pictograph chat communicator IV

Lecture Notes in Computer Science (including subseries Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence and Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics)  2011   KES International

　View Summary

We have developed a pictograph chat communicator for distant places, named Pictograph Chat Communicator IV. The system has an awareness function, an example sentence indication function, a pictograph quotation function, and a Web image search function. Experiments were carried out 9 times in Japanese and Chinese. As a result, the level of understanding is 88.2%. Though we experimented with the system in distant places, the results did not differ from those in the same room. It was supposed that pictograph communication was sufficient for ice-breaking communication between distant places. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.

Research on the Relationships between Visual Entertainment Factor and Chat Communication

Tomoyasu Ogaki, Junko Itou, Jun Munemori

HUMAN INTERFACE AND THE MANAGEMENT OF INFORMATION: INTERACTING WITH INFORMATION, PT 2  2011   SPRINGER-VERLAG BERLIN

　View Summary

In this article, we analyze the effects of visual entertainment factors included in visual cues on chat communication aiming to enliven exchanging chat messages. Visual cues such as smileys, avatars and pictograms are essential to make our communication successful. However, visual cues can be used as only a substitution to express user's intentions. Therefore we propose a chat system with characters which change different forms according to chat messages input bye users with visual cues and we investigate the effects on exchanging chat messages.

研究報告電子化知的財産・社会基盤（EIP）  2010.11.18   情報処理学会

　View Summary

携帯電話やパソコンの普及により，ネットワークを介してコミュニケーションをとる機会が増大した．コミュニケーションをとるためのシステムも多岐にわたり，テキストだけでなく，絵文字，アバタ，アイコンなどといった様々な視覚的表現技法が利用されている．これらの技法はチャットシステム利用者の多くに使われており，意思疎通に役立っているが，現状ではユーザ自身の感情などを表現するために使われることがほとんどである．そこで本研究では，入力メッセージの内容により異なる姿に成長するアバタを設計し，感情表現のためだけでなくチャットシステムに視覚的な娯楽要素を取り入れることによって，チャットメッセージのやりとりの活発化を目指す．In this article, we analyze the effects of visual entertainment factors included in visual expressions on chat communication aiming to exchange chat messages lively. Visual expressions such as smiley, an avatar and a pictogram, are essential to make our communication successful. However, visual expressions can be used as only substitution to express user's intentions. Therefore we propose a chat system with characters which change different aspects according to chat messages with visual expressions and we investigate the effects on exchanging chat messages.

研究報告ユビキタスコンピューティングシステム（UBI）  2010.10.22   情報処理学会

　View Summary

モバイル端末で圧力センサを補助的に使用することにより，選択的な入力を効率的に行えるインタフェースを考案した．これを，絵文字を使ってコミュニケーションするためのツールである，絵文字チャットコミュニケータの絵文字入力に適用した．その結果，従来の GUI による選択のみで絵文字を入力するよりも，本入力インタフェースにより絵文字を選択する方が，操作時間が短縮でき，操作性が改善されることがわかった．We developed the efficient input method of mobile devices using pressure sensor supplementary to select from some candidates. We applied this input method to select pictograph in communication application using pictograph, named "Pictograph Chat Communicator". From the results of the experiments, we found that our input method could make the selection of pictograph more speedy and usable than traditional GUI input method.
