This study explores the coordination between manual pointing gestures and gestures of the vocal tract. Using a novel methodology that allows for concurrent collection of audio, kinematic body and speech articulator trajectories, we ask 1) which particular gesture (vowel gesture, consonant gesture, or tone gesture) the pointing gesture is coordinated with, and 2) with which landmarks the two ges...

Aiming at the problem that segmented gesture by Kinect depth information usually contains wrist data, which easily causes subsequent false gesture recognition, a gesture segmentation and positioning algorithm based on improved depth information was proposed.Firstly, the gesture binary image was detected based on depth information threshold limit in experimental space.Secondly, according to char...

Instructions are an inextricable, yet poorly understood aspect of modern human life. In this paper we propose that instruction implementation and following can be understood as fast Hebbian learning in prefrontal cortex, which trains slower pathways (e.g., cortical-basal ganglia pathways). We present a computational model of instruction following that is used to simulate key behavioral and neur...
