Abstract

This paper proposes a system called Neary that detects conversational fields and is designed to run on mobile machines with a network module and a microphone. Neary operates on a simple algorithm and a light-weight process, so other systems can incorporate it smoothly. In this paper, we show an implementation of our Neary system and its experimental evaluations. Neary can distinguish between two conversation groups one meter apart and dynamically detect the changes in the number and the physical size of conversation fields.
