Novel Speech Motion Generation by Modeling Dynamics of Human Speech Production

We developed a method to automatically generate humanlike trunk motions based on speech (i.e., the neck and waist motions involved in speech) for a conversational android from its speech in real time. To generate humanlike movements, the android’s mechanical limitation (i.e., limited number of joint...
