Abstract(in English) Head nodding plays an important role in daily communication. Therefore, this study aims to improve the detection accuracy of nodding. Since many of the previous studies have been conducted under controlled conditions, the actual performance is unknown, especially the possibility of faint/small nodding detection is unclear. In this study, we consider the conventional rotary motion of the head, the vertical motion of the middle of the forehead. We also, in addition to utilize the pause of speech in order to improve the detection accuracy.
