Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Predicting roles of participants in a conversation is one of the most important tasks for conversation understanding. In this paper, we propose a prediction model of facilitators in conversations. A previous study has handled verbal features for the facilitator prediction task. However, non-verbal features are also important elements for the prediction. Therefore, we introduce non-verbal features into the prediction model. We utilize two types of non-verbal features: motion features and voice features. The motion features are based on face information and body information. The voice features are based on prosodic information. In the experiment, we compare our model with a verbal feature-based model. The experimental result shows the effectiveness of our method.
