Negotiated interaction with computers: sensing, inference and multimodal feedback

 Abstract: This talk will focus on the 'negotiated interaction' approach to the design of human-computer interaction. This approach incorporates sensing, signal processing, probabilistic inference and multimodal feedback to shape the human-computer interaction loop. I will present examples from the mobile interaction, brain-computer interaction, and music recommendation areas.
