Towards Realistic Embodied AI Agents
… within the broader AI community termed as "Embodied AI". Problems studied under the umbrella of Embodied AI include the introduction of scene datasets and simulators to train AI agents to perform a wide spectrum of tasks requiring a curriculum of capabilities. While progress on this front …

Embodied multimodal referring expressions generation
… interactions. Despite advancements in AI, embodied interactive virtual agents (IVAs) are not equipped to intelligently mix modalities to communicate their intents as humans do, which hamstrings naturalistic multimodal IVA. We introduce SCMRE, a situated corpus of multimodal referring …

Embodied mathematics by interactive sketching
… grounding in real world objects and events. The embodied mathematics philosophy posits that our mathematical capabilities are centered around our embodied experiences, and abstract math concepts are layers of metaphors that are based on simple arithmetic capabilities such as categorizing objects, …

Embodied emergence : distributed computing manipulatives
… life and generative art, their physically embodied counterparts are still in their infancy, in part due to the complexity of building and deploying such systems. In this thesis, I will discuss how simple tangible nodes can enable playful and creative experimentation with the concept of …

Embodied language learning in virtual reality
Embodied theories of language propose that the way we communicate verbally is grounded in our body. Nevertheless, the way a second language is conventionally taught does not capitalize on embodied modalities. The tracking and immersive capabilities of virtual reality systems can enable a change in …
