The role of physical gestures in human-computer interaction has mostly been neglected. In this paper, we argue that gestures are not just one input modality. Rather, they should be...
Abstract. Why an iconic gesture takes its particular form is a largely open question, given the variations one finds across both situations and speakers. We present results of an e...
This study experimentally manipulates common ground (the knowledge, beliefs and assumptions interlocutors mutually share [6]) and measures the effect on speakers' use of inter...
In this paper, we present a Web-based framework for interactive Sign Language using virtual signing agents. The main feature of this framework is that it is a full DOM-Integrated a...
We present a robust detector for deictic gestures based on a time-of-flight (TOF) camera, a combined range and intensity image sensor. Pointing direction is used to determine wheth...
