Multimodal and Federated Interaction
نویسندگان
چکیده
This chapter introduces the concepts of multimodal and federated interaction. Because multimodality means, simply, the combination of multiple modalities (or types of input and output), the authors first introduce some of the various modalities available for computer interaction. The chapter then discusses how multimodality can be used both in desktop and mobile computing environments. The goal of the chapter is to familiarize scholars and researchers with the range of topics covered under the heading “multimodality” and suggest new areas of research around the combination of modalities, as well as the combination of mobile and stationary computing devices to improve usability.

Achieving Multimodal Cohesion during Intercultural Conversations
How do English as a lingua franca (ELF) speakers achieve multimodal cohesion on the basis of their specific interests and cultural backgrounds? From a dialogic and collaborative view of communication, this study focuses on how verbal and nonverbal modes cohere together during intercultural conversations. The data include approximately 160-minute transcribed video recordings of ELF interactions ...
متن کاملMultimodal Belief Fusion for Face and Ear Biometrics
This paper proposes a multimodal biometric system through Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) for face and ear biometrics with belief fusion of the estimated scores characterized by Gabor responses and the proposed fusion is accomplished by Dempster-Shafer (DS) decision theory. Face and ear images are convolved with Gabor wavelet filters to extracts spatially enhanced Gabor facial features and Gabor e...
متن کاملNatural Language Enabled Web Applications
This article describes the usage of XML in a multimodal dialog system based on the Web architecture. The motivation behind the work is based on the observation that Web based interactions can be viewed as dialog conducted in an iconic language. Since the Web architecture accommodates multiple input/output methods by abstracting device details, it seems a straightforward way to weave natural lan...
متن کاملFuzzy particle swarm optimization with nearest-better neighborhood for multimodal optimization
In the last decades, many efforts have been made to solve multimodal optimization problems using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). To produce good results, these PSO algorithms need to specify some niching parameters to define the local neighborhood. In this paper, our motivation is to propose the novel neighborhood structures that remove undesirable niching parameters without sacrificing perf...
متن کاملArchitecting Information Security Services for Federated Satellite Systems
This paper investigates the provision of information security services in Federated Satellite Systems. We initiate the discussion by describing possible threats that the system faces, as well as the speci c security services that have to be provided in order to mitigate them. Next, we de ne a set of ve primal security functions that a federated satellite system has to implement and propose the ...
