A Comparative Study of Large Language Models for Gesture Selection in Virtual Agents

2026-03-20

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Co-speech gestures convey a wide variety of meanings and play an important role in face-to-face human interaction, influencing addressees’ engagement, recall, comprehension, and attitudes toward speaker. Similar effects have been observed in interactions with embodied virtual agents, making selection and animation of meaningful gestures a key focus in agent design. Automating this gestu...
