  • Abstract
    We describe the design and report the development of an open source ware toolkit for building an easily customizable anthropomorphic dialog agent. This toolkit consists of four modules for multi-modal dialog integration, speech recognition, speech synthesis, and face image synthesis. In this paper, we focus on the construction of an agent´s face image synthesis.
