将文化作为参数整合到虚拟角色的行为模型中来模拟文化差异正变得越来越普遍。但这些差异会影响用户的感知吗？在本文所描述的工作中，我们将非语言行为以及沟通管理行为的各个方面整合到德国和日本两种文化的虚拟角色的行为模型中，以找出这些方面中的哪些方面会影响目标文化中的人类观察者。我们给出了一个文献综述，指出了这两种文化中预期的差异，并描述了对包括德国和日本对话者的视频记录在内的多模式语料库的分析。在将我们的发现整合到一个以德国和日本情景为特色的演示器中后，我们在一项评估研究中向两种目标文化的人类观察者展示了虚拟情景。
Integrating culture as a parameter into the behavioral models of virtual characters to simulate cultural differences is becoming more and more popular. But do these differences affect the user's perception? In the work described in this paper, we integrated aspects of non-verbal behavior as well as communication management behavior into the behavioral models of virtual characters for the two cultures of Germany and Japan in order to find out which of these aspects affect human observers of the target cultures. We give a literature review pointing out the expected differences in these two cultures and describe the analysis of a multi-modal corpus including video recordings of German and Japanese interlocutors. After integrating our findings into a demonstrator featuring a German and a Japanese scenario, we presented the virtual scenarios to human observers of the two target cultures in an evaluation study.
