The Handbook of Multimodal-Multisensor Interfaces provides the first authoritative resource on what has become the dominant paradigm for new computer interfaces-user input involving new media (speech, multi-touch, hand and body gestures, facial expressions, writing) embedded in multimodal-multisensor interfaces.
This three-volume handbook is written by international experts and pioneers in the field. It provides a textbook, reference, and technology roadmap for professionals working in this and related areas.
This third volume focuses on state-of-the-art multimodal language and dialogue processing, including semantic integration of modalities. The development of increasingly expressive embodied agents and robots has become an active test bed for coordinating multimodal dialogue input and output, including processing of language and nonverbal communication. In addition, major application areas are featured for commercializing multimodal-multisensor systems, including automotive, robotic, manufacturing, machine translation, banking, communications, and others. These systems rely heavily on software tools, data resources, and international standards to facilitate their development. For insights into the future, emerging multimodal-multisensor technology trends are highlighted in medicine, robotics, interaction with smart spaces, and similar areas. Finally, this volume discusses the societal impact of more widespread adoption of these systems, such as privacy risks and how to mitigate them. The handbook chapters provide a number of walk-through examples of system design and processing, information on practical resources for developing and evaluating new systems, and terminology and tutorial support for mastering this emerging field. In the final section of this volume, experts exchange views on a timely and controversial challenge topic, and how they believe multimodal-multisensor interfaces need to be equipped to most effectively advance human performance during the next decade.

About the Author
Björn Schuller (University of Passau and Imperial College London) is currently Chair of Complex and Intelligent Systems at University of Passau and Reader in Machine Learning at Imperial College. He is best known for his work on multisensorial/multimodal intelligent signal processing for affective, behavioral, and human-centered computing. In 2015 and 2016, he was honored by the World Economic Forum as one of 40/50 extraordinary scientists under age 40. His further awards include the CHiME, MediaEval, and MIREX competitions. He has published over 500 peer-reviewed scientific contributions across a range of disciplines and venues, and is Editor-in-Chief of IEEE Transactions on Affective Computing. His books include Intelligent Audio Analysis (2013, Springer) and Computational Paralinguistics (2013, Wiley).
Philip Cohen (VoiceBox Technologies) is Senior Vice President and Chief Scientist for Artificial Intelligence, whose research interests include multimodal interaction, human-computer dialogue, and multi-agent systems. He is a Fellow of the American Association for Artificial Intelligence, past President of the Association for Computational Linguistics, and recipient (with Hector Levesque) of an Inaugural Influential Paper Award by the International Foundation for Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems. He was the Founder of Adapx, Professor and Co-Director of the Center for Human-Computer Communication in Computer Science at Oregon Health and Science University, and Director of Natural Language in the Artificial Intelligence Center at SRI International.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Revaluation Books, Hounslow, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
