凝视在人与人之间的交流中起着重要的作用。适当的虚拟代理的凝视控制也是成功和可信的人机交互的关键。HAI的研究人员通过考虑凝视持续时间、频率和凝视厌恶的时间来开发凝视控制模型。然而，凝视行为的文化差异还没有得到足够的关注。我们的目的是调查文化差异的凝视行为和他们的看法，通过开发虚拟代理与日本的凝视行为，美国的凝视行为，和固定的凝视行为。然后，我们比较了它们对代理人和交互的印象的影响。我们的第一个实验结果与日本的参与者表明，代理人的印象是受参与者的害羞和熟悉的凝视模式的代理人执行。本文报道了我们的第二个实验的结果，调查的代理人的性别和参与者的性别对特定文化的凝视行为的感知的影响。初步结果表明，有不同性别的参与者和代理人的感知有利的凝视行为。女性受试者对具有美国凝视行为的同性别代理人的印象更好，而男性受试者更喜欢具有日本凝视行为的代理人。这些结果表明，良好的注视行为根据用户的性别和代理的性别。
Gaze plays an important role in human-human communication. Adequate gaze control of a virtual agent is also essential for successful and believable human-agent interaction. Researchers on HAI have developed gaze control models by taking account of gaze duration, frequency, and timing of gaze aversion. However, cultural differences in gaze behaviors have not been focused enough. We aimed to investigate cultural differences in gaze behaviors and their perception by developing virtual agents with Japanese gaze behaviors, American gaze behaviors, and fixed gaze behaviors. We then compared their effects on the impressions of the agents and interactions. Our first experimental results with Japanese participants suggested that the impression of the agent is affected by participants' shyness and familiarity of the gaze patterns performed by the agent. This paper reports the results of our second experiment that investigated the effects of the gender of agents and the gender of participants on perception of culture-specific gaze behaviors. The preliminary results suggests there are differences between the gender of participants and agents on the perception of favorable gaze behaviors. The female participants had a better impression on the agent of the same gender that performed the American gaze behavior, while the male participants preferred the agents with the Japanese gaze behavior. These results indicate favorable gaze behaviors vary according to users' gender and agents' gender.
