Reseña del editor:
This collection of original contributions reports on key advances in intelligent (knowledge-based) user interfaces that exploit multiple media -- text, graphics, maps -- and multiple modalities -- visual, auditory, gestural -- to facilitate human-computer interaction. Chapters are grouped into three sections that address automated presentation design, intelligent multimedia interfaces, and architectural and theoretical issues.Although humans have a natural facility for managing and exploiting multiple input and output media, computers do not. Consequently, providing machines with the ability to interpret multimedia input and generate multimedia output would be a valuable facility for a number of key applications such as information retrieval and analysis, training and decision support. Successful intelligent multimedia interfaces require theories and technologies from a host of disciplines, including computational linguistics, computer graphics, cognitive science, human computer interaction, and computer-supported cooperative work -- all of them represented in this collection.
Contraportada:
Multimedia Communication is ubiquitous in daily life. When we converse with one another, we utilize a wide array of media to interact, including spoken language, gestures, and drawings. We exploit multiple sensory systems or modes of communication including vision, audition, and taction. Although humans have a natural facility for managing and exploiting multiple input and output media, computers do not. Consequently, providing machines with the ability to interpret multimedia input and generate multimedia output would be a valuable facility for a number of key applications such as information retrieval and analysis, training, and decision support. This book focuses specifically on those intelligent interfaces that exploit multiple media and modes to facilitate human-computer communication. As a consequence, this edited collection will be of interest to researchers and practitioners in computer science, artificial intelligence, computer-human interaction, cognitive science, and graphic design.
