Aspects of speech and non-verbal behavior allow conversational partners to establish and maintain rapport by signaling engagement or endorsement. In the verbal channel, these fact...
Computation plays a major role in decision making. Even if an agent is willing to ascribe a probability to all states and a utility to all outcomes, and maximize expected utility,...
Research in Ambient Intelligence and Ubiquitous Computing has put computational devices into many social settings while leaving intact much of the "task support and informati...
