scientific forum for presenting research on modeling,
developing and evaluating Intelligent Virtual Agents
(IVAs) with a focus on communicative abilities and social
behavior. IVAs are interactive digital characters that
exhibit human-like qualities and can communicate with
humans and each other using natural human modalities like
facial expressions, speech and gesture. They are capable
of real-time perception, cognition, emotion and action
that allow them to participate in dynamic social
environments. In addition to presentations on theoretical
issues, the conference encourages the showcasing of
working applications.</font></font></font></font></p>

Agents can take different roles such as tutors, peers,

nurse to name a few applications. With this topic in

also with social psychologists. </span></font></font></font></font>
