Conference Intelligent Virtual Agents – Flipper 2.0

Flipper 2.0 aims to help developers of embodied conversational agents (ECAs) quickly and flexibly create dialogues. Jelte van Waterschoot presented our paper on Flipper at the Internation Conference on Intelligent Virtual Agents in Sydney Australia.

During the conference, I organised a workshop on methodology. At the conference, we had great keynotes by, amongst others, Hiroshi Ishiguro and Mark Sagar. Especially Mark’s talk was fascinating, with a live demo of his virtual baby. Mind-blowing to see the detail and possibilities of the neural network controlling the ‘baby’. To finish the conference even more positive for us: we were awarded a best paper award during the conference diner.
