چکیده

A standardized procedure to evaluate the perceived quality of multimodal systems is still lacking. Previous research has however shown that the quality ratings for a multimodal system are equal to the weighted sum of the quality ratings of its individual modalities, with the modality that is more frequently used having a stronger influence. These findings suggest, that if the choice of modality can be predicted, an estimation of the quality of the multimodal systems is possible, based solely on an evaluation of its component modalities. Accordingly, the current study investigates the prediction of modality choice based on quality ratings of the component modalities, in order to achieve accurate quality predictions for multimodal systems. It is shown that predictions of modality choice as well as the overall system quality are possible. Furthermore, an age effect is observed: if older adults are included, predictions are less precise.

Predicting the quality of multimodal systems based on judgments of single modalities

This paper investigates the relationship between user ratings of multimodal systems and user ratings of its single modalities. Based on previous research showing precise predictions of ratings of multimodal systems based on ratings of single modality, it was hypothesized that the accuracy might have been caused by the participants' efforts to rate consistently. We address this issue with two ne...

Cognitive-Aware Modality Allocation in Intelligent Multimodal Information Presentation

Intelligent multimodal presentation (IMMP) systems are able to generate multimodal presentations adaptively, based on the run-time requirements of user–computer interaction. Modality allocation in IMMP system needs to adapt the modality choice to changes in various relevant factors, such as the type of information to be conveyed, the presentation goal, the characteristics of the available modal...

Modeling of Modality Selection in Multimodal Human-Computer Interaction

Research Interests The main interest of my research is the development of model-based methods for simulation and automated usability prediction of multimodal interfaces. In particular I want to investigate how modality choice of users can be predicted and simulated by a computational model that estimates the quality of multimodal interfaces. Therefore I am also interested in exploring rules and...

Prediction of asynchronous dimensional emotion ratings from audiovisual and physiological data

Automatic emotion recognition systems based on supervised machine learning require reliable annotation of a↵ective behaviours to build useful models. Whereas the dimensional approach is getting more and more popular for rating a↵ective behaviours in continuous time domains, e. g., arousal and valence, methodologies to take into account reaction lags of the human raters are still rare. We theref...

Hybrid Recommender System Based on Variance Item Rating

K-nearest neighbors (KNN) based recommender systems (KRS) are among the most successful recent available recommender systems. These methods involve in predicting the rating of an item based on the mean of ratings given to similar items, with the similarity defined by considering the mean rating given to each item as its feature. This paper presents a KRS developed by combining the following app...
