How Low Should You Go? Low Response Rates and the Validity of Inference in IS Questionnaire Research
2006
Journal of the AIS
To illustrate how nonresponse error may bias findings in IS research, we calculate its impact on confidence intervals. ...
We believe IS researchers can and should do a better of job of improving (assuring) the validity of their findings by minimizing nonresponse error. ...
This is especially true of e-mail and web-based questionnaires that can reach a large number of people with the touch of a key. ...

Turning away from talking heads
1993
Proceedings of the SIGCHI conference on Human factors in computing systems - CHI '93
To date, most research on the value of video has concentrated on "taLking heads" video in which the video images are of remote participants conferring or performing some task together. ...
In contrast to talking heads video, we studied video-as-data in which video images of the workspace and work objects are the focus of interest, and convey criticat information about the work. ...
Steve Gate's previous work on the project was of great value. ...

Optimization of an Image-Based Talking Head System
2009
EURASIP Journal on Audio, Speech, and Music Processing
This paper presents an image-based talking head system, which includes two parts: analysis and synthesis. ...
A critical issue of the synthesis is the unit selection which selects and concatenates these appropriate mouth images from the database such that they match the spoken words of the talking head. ...
The authors would like to thank Tobias Elbrandt for his helpful comments and suggestions in the evaluation of the subjective tests. ...

Corpus-based generation of head and eyebrow motion for an embodied conversational agent
2007
Language Resources and Evaluation
We present a system that uses corpus-based selection strategies to specify the head and eyebrow motion of an animated talking head. ...
We then present two different methods of selecting motions for the talking head based on the corpus data: one that chooses the majority option in all cases, and one that makes a weighted choice among all ...
In this project, we select the head and eyebrow motions of a synthetic talking head in a multimodal dialogue system based on the recorded and annotated behaviour of a speaker reading a script of similar ...

Journal of IT Cases and Applications
Grounded theory approach is used in this study and a model is generated based on qualitative analysis. ...
In order to learn how cloud computing is going to bring changes to organizational IT strategy, we conducted interviews with CIOs/IT directors from US companies which has adopted the cloud service to understand ...
One of the limitations of this study is that, the impact model is generated from data, and is still subjective to further validation of a survey, which would cover a much larger company bases. ...

RMT: A Dialog-Based Research Methods Tutor With or Without a Head
[chapter]
2004
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Its modular architecture enables the interchange and evaluation of different tools and techniques for improving tutoring. ...
In this paper, we describe the RMT architecture and give the results of an initial experiment that compared RMT's animated agent "talking head" with a text-only version of the system. ...
Because RMT is a web-based system, each tutoring session has its own dialog manager, and the DM maintains information about the parameters of the tutoring session and the current state of the dialog. ...
