Between one-third and one-half interact with the atmosphere, with aquatic of the land surface has been transformed by human action; the carbon dioxide con- systems, and with surrounding land. Morecentration in the atmosphere has increased by near ..."

Inverse Reinforcement Learning for Micro-Turn Management
"... Existing spoken dialogue systems are typically not de-signed to provide natural interaction since they impose a strict turn-taking regime in which a dialogue consists of interleaved system and user turns. To allow more responsive and natural interaction, this paper describes a system in which turn-t ..."

function manually. Using a corpus of human-human interac-tion, experiments show that IRL is able to learn an effective reward function which outperforms a comparable handcrafted policy. Index Terms: dialogue management, spoken dialogue systems, inverse reinforcement learning, Markov decision processes
A Study of Turn-Yielding Cues in Human-Computer Dialogue
"... Abstract. Previous research has made significant advances in under-standing how humans manage to engage in smooth, well-coordinated conversation, and have unveiled the existence of several turn-yielding cues — lexico-syntactic, prosodic and acoustic events that may serve as predictors of conversatio ..."

in human-human interac-tions. We also show that a linear relation holds between the number of individual cues conjointly displayed and the likelihood of a turn switch. 1
Knowledge transfer: A basis for competitive advantage in firms Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes
"... This concluding article in the special issue of Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes on the foundations of knowledge transfer in organizations argues that the creation and transfer of knowledge are a basis for competitive advantage in firms. The article builds on a framework of knowl ..."

The article develops the proposition that interac-tions among people, tasks, and tools are least likely to fit the new context and hence
How a Cockpit Remembers Its Speeds
- Cognitive Science
, 1995
"... Cognitive science normally takes the individual agent as its unit of analysis. In many human endeavors, however, the outcomes of interest are not determined entirely by the information processing properties of individuals. Nor can they be inferred from the properties of the individual agents, alone, ..."

On Distinguishing Epistemic from Pragmatic Action
- Cognitive Science
, 1994
"... We present data and argument to show that in Tetris-a real-time, interactive video game-certain cognitive and perceptual problems ore more quicktv, easily, and reliably solved by performing actions in the world than by performing com-putational actions in the head atone. We have found that some of t ..."

far from superfluous; they play a valuable role in improving human performance. We argue that traditional accounts are limited because they regard action as having o single function: to change the world. By recognizing a second function of action-an epistemic func-tion-we can explain many
Chapter 7 Cooperative Physical Human-Human and Human-Robot Interaction
"... Abstract This chapter examines the physical interaction between two humans and between a human and a robot simulating a human in the absence of all other modes of interaction, such as visual and verbal. Generally, when asked, people prefer to work alone on tasks requiring accuracy. However, as demon ..."

AUDIOVISUAL QUALITY INTEGRATION: COMPARISON OF HUMAN-HUMAN AND HUMAN-MACHINE INTERACTION SCENARIOS OF DIFFERENT INTERACTIVITY
"... The quality of audio-visual services is largely influenced by the qualities of the auditory and the visual signals. Percep-tion of both signals is integrated and a single audio-visual rating is formed. The integration function depends, however, on the type of application. In this paper, we compare d ..."

different integration functions which have been determined from empirical data collected in human-human and human-machine scenarios with different degrees of interactivity. The results show that the impact of each modality depends on both, the type of scenario and its degree of interactivity.
NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF HUMAN HEAD INTERAC- TION WITH PIFA ANTENNAS IN CELLULAR MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS
"... Abstract—This paper presents a numerical simulation of the human head coupling with a Planar Inverted-F Antenna (PIFA) structure based on the Coupled Integral Equation/Method of Moment (CIE/MoM) approach to study the effects of the EM coupling on the antenna performance. A mix-potential integral equ ..."

The use of eye movements in human-computer interaction techniques: What you look at is what you get
- ACM Transactions on Information Systems
, 1991
"... In seeking hitherto-unused methods by which users and computers can comrnumcate, we investigate the usefulness of eye movements as a fast and convenient auxiliary user-to-computer communication mode. The barrier to exploiting this medium has not been eye-tracking tech-nology but the study of interac ..."
