Alan Turing developed the Turing Test as a method to determine whether artificial intelligence (AI) can deceive human interrogators into believing it is sentient by competently answering questions at a confidence rate of 30%+. However, the Turing Tes... Read More about The Multimodal Turing Test for Realistic Humanoid Robots with Embodied Artificial Intelligence.

The Task2Dial Dataset: A Novel Dataset for Commonsense-enhanced Task-based Dialogue Grounded in Documents (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Strathearn, C., & Gkatzia, D. (2021). The Task2Dial Dataset: A Novel Dataset for Commonsense-enhanced Task-based Dialogue Grounded in Documents. In Proceedings of The Fourth International Conference on Natural Language and Speech Processing (ICNLSP 2021)

This paper describes the Task2Dial dataset, a novel dataset of document-grounded task-based dialogues in the food preparation domain , where an Information Giver (IG) provides instructions to an Information Follower (IF) so that the latter can succes...

Chefbot: A Novel Framework for the Generation of Commonsense-enhanced Responses for Task-based Dialogue Systems (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Strathearn, C., & Gkatzia, D. (2021). Chefbot: A Novel Framework for the Generation of Commonsense-enhanced Responses for Task-based Dialogue Systems. In Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Natural Language Generation (46-47)

Conversational systems aim to generate responses that are accurate, relevant and engaging, either through utilising neural end-to-end models or through slot filling. Human-to-human conversations are enhanced by not only the latest utterance of the in...

Artificial Eyes with Emotion and Light Responsive Pupils for Realistic Humanoid Robots (2021)
Journal Article
Strathearn, C. (2021). Artificial Eyes with Emotion and Light Responsive Pupils for Realistic Humanoid Robots. Informatics, 8(4), Article 64. https://doi.org/10.3390/informatics8040064

This study employs a novel 3D engineered robotic eye system with dielectric elastomer actuator (DEA) pupils and a 3D sculpted and colourised gelatin iris membrane to replicate the appearance and materiality of the human eye. A camera system for facia... Read More about Artificial Eyes with Emotion and Light Responsive Pupils for Realistic Humanoid Robots.

A Novel Speech to Mouth Articulation System for Realistic Humanoid Robots (2021)
Journal Article
Strathearn, C., & Minhua, M. (2021). A Novel Speech to Mouth Articulation System for Realistic Humanoid Robots. Journal of Intelligent and Robotic Systems, 101(3), Article 54. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10846-021-01332-2

A significant ongoing issue in realistic humanoid robotics (RHRs) is inaccurate speech to mouth synchronisation. Even the most advanced robotic systems cannot authentically emulate the natural movements of the human jaw, lips and tongue during verbal...
