Things to Talk About When Talking About Things

This commentary reviews the existing research literature concerning support for talking about objects in mediated communication, drawing three conclusions: (a) speech alone is often sufficient for effective conversations; (b) visual information about work objects is generally more valuable than visual information about work participants; and (c) disjoint visual perspectives can undermine commun...

Workshop on Multi-sensorial Approaches to Human-food Interaction 1st Workshop on Multi-sensorial Approaches to Human-food Workshop on Multi-sensorial Approaches to Human-food Interaction Workshop on Multi-sensorial Approaches to Human-food Interaction the Association for Computing Machinery 2

In the field of virtual reality (VR) research, media technologies to create a realistic feeling of being present in a real/virtual world by duplicating multi-sensory information have been studied over a long period. Recently, technologies for multi-sensory feedbacks achieved a major breakthrough by utilizing cross-modal interactions. By changing sensory stimuli through only one modality using t...

A Method for Forming Mutual Beliefs for Communication through Human-robot Multi-modal Interaction

This paper describes a method of multimodal language processing that reflects experiences shared by people and robots. Through incremental online optimization in the process of interaction, the user and the robot form mutual beliefs represented by a stochastic model. Based on these mutual beliefs, the robot can interpret even fragmental and ambiguous utterances, and can act and generate utteran...

Towards a Theory of Mediated Communication

interpersonal communication, media, shared workspaces CSCW currently lacks a theory of mediated communication. A number of empirical studies have been conducted which detail the effects on communication of using a variety of different media, but we do not have clear explanation for these effects. This paper attempts to show how an account of mediated communication can be informed by an analysis...
