Did you know that OFAI was founded in 1984 as a special research institution of the Austrian Society for Cybernetic Studies (OSGK)? Our parent organization, established in 1969, recently redesigned its website: https://osgk.ac.at/ #Cybernetics #ArtificialIntelligence

A computer-assisted study on the role of scale distortions in visual humour has been published in the European Journal of #Humour Studies. The article, "On the Use of Scale Distortion for Visual Humour: A Preliminary Analysis", examines human ratings of humour in a data set of cartoons where the size of various objects has been distorted. The analysis reveals that scenes with distorted objects are perceived to be significantly funnier than the original images. The article is co-authored by Clara Swaboda , formerly of Universität Wien | University of Vienna , and OFAI associate researcher Tristan Miller . It has been published as Open Access: https://lnkd.in/gpDB6DKb
