User-defined gestures for surface computing
Jacob O. Wobbrock,Meredith Ringel Morris,Andrew D. Wilson +2 more
- 04 Apr 2009
TL;DR: The findings indicate that users rarely care about the number of fingers they employ, that one hand is preferred to two, that desktop idioms strongly influence users' mental models, and that some commands elicit little gestural agreement, suggesting the need for on-screen widgets.

Two Sides of the Same Coin Speech and Gesture Mutually Interact to Enhance Comprehension
TL;DR: The integrated-systems hypothesis is proposed, which explains two ways in which gesture and speech are integrated—through mutual and obligatory interactions—in language comprehension, and it is demonstrated that gesture andspeech form an integrated system in language comprehension.
Challenges of multimodality: Language and the body in social interaction
Lorenza Mondada,Lorenza Mondada +1 more
TL;DR: The authors discusses the consequences and challenges of putting the body at the center of attention in social interaction, and proposes to consider the involvement of entire bodies in social interactions, overcoming a logo-centric vision of communication, as well as a visuo-centric view of embodiment.

Real-time gesture translation in intercultural communication
TL;DR: The conceptual design and an early prototype of a real-time gesture translator using body tracking and gesture recognition in avatar-mediated intercultural interactions contributes to the ambitious goal of bridging between cultures by translating culture-specific gestures to enhance mutual understanding.

A common functional neural network for overt production of speech and gesture.
TL;DR: Analysis of functional magnetic resonance imaging revealed a functional network connected to Broca's area that is common to speech, gesture, and co-speech gesture production, suggesting that the coordination of speech and gesture is mediated by a shared motor control network.

Speakers' use of interactive gestures as markers of common ground
Judith Holler
- 25 Feb 2009
TL;DR: This study experimentally manipulates common ground and measures the effect on speakers’ use of interactive gestures to mark common ground, and shows that speakers seem to employ at least two different forms of shared knowledge gestures.

Systematicity and idiosyncrasy in iconic gesture use: empirical analysis and computational modeling
Kirsten Bergmann,Stefan Kopp +1 more
- 25 Feb 2009
TL;DR: A computational model of gesture formation is presented that combines data-based, probabilistic and model-based decision making and tests whether correlations between contextual factors and gesture features are systematic or idiosyncratic.
