Development of Conversational Agents and Applications in Playful Environments

In this project, we propose an intelligent conversational agents prototype that provides meaningful, playful exchanges in different interactive settings. By taking advantage of the latest advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and creating a model founded on knowledge from social and cognitive sciences, we will build a series of digital avatars to test their interaction ability. This research-creation project connects to other disciplines like Human Computer Interactions (HCI). In this field, human behaviour is partly studied by how people process feedback from different technologies such as the internet, social media, and mobile applications. I aim to improve the development process of conversational AI agents, which will in turn help me to deepen my research knowledge in text modeling in the context of conversational agents
