The Twentieth Center for Advanced Study Annual Lecture

Thomas Huang, CAS Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering,
University of Illinois "Human Computer Intelligent Interaction:  Face
Tracking, Avatars and Electronic Consumer Relation Management" on
Wednesday, October 20, 7:30 pm, Spurlock Museum, 600 S. Gregory,
Urbana.

In this talk, Tom Huang will describe some of the research he and his
students have been conducting during the last decade on Human Computer
Interaction:

        • Information flow from human to computer such as hand/fingers
tracking and gesture recognition; face tracking and emotion
recognition
        • Information flow from computer to human such as the
audio-visual emotive avatar
These interfaces have applications in many areas including gaming as
well as Electronic Consumer Relation Management (ECRM).   Examples in
ECRM include:  the collection of demographic data (what percentage of
white male teenagers buy Product X?); adaptive public display (what is
displayed depends on the genders, ages, and emotional reactions of the
audience); and embodied intelligent agent.

This presentation is free and open to the public.  For more
