In this paper I describe my research goals and hypotheses regarding human-computer relationships with embodied conversational agents (ECAs). I include important studies of related research that inform and direct my own efforts. I explain the current state and some technical aspects of the ECAs I have contributed to create, and past experiments regarding human-ECA familiarity, ECA design and analysis, and multiparty ECA interaction, including our semi-automated corpora collection techniques, analysis methodology, and their respective results to date. Finally, I conclude with an overall presentation of all current studies I have worked on, and future possibilities for my final dissertation and post-dissertation research related to virtual human-ECA rapport.
