AUTOMATIC REACTION-TRIGGERING FOR LIVE PRESENTATIONS

Abstract:

The present disclosure relates to processing operations configured to provide processing that automatically analyzes acoustic signals from attendees of a live presentation and automatically triggers corresponding reaction indications from results of analysis thereof. Exemplary reaction indications provide feedback for live presentations that can be presented in real-time (or near real-time) without requiring a user to manually take action to provide any feedback. As a non-limiting example, reaction indications may be presented in a form that is easy to visualize and understand such as emojis or icons. Another example of a reaction indication is a graphical user interface (GUI) notification that provides a predictive indication of user intent derived from analysis of acoustic signals. Further examples described herein extend to training and application of artificial intelligence (AI) processing, in real-time (or near real-time), that is configured to automatically analyze acoustic features of audio streams and automatically generate exemplary reaction indications.
