Analysis of human movement data is a core topic of many research studies in human-human and human-computer interaction. Whereas, on the one side, automated movement analysis is often based on the application of sophisticated computer science techniques (e.g., motion tracking from video recordings), on the other side the interdisciplinary nature...

Psychophysical and developmental psychology evidence shows that children have a preferential sensory channel to learn specific concepts, highlighting the need of a multisensory approach to education. Despite such a potential for a positive impact, in education technology research multisensory learning has been often penalised and limited by...

We present a method to compute a measure of karate movement quality from MoCap data. We start from well-known common assumptions: An expert athlete is able to perform movements characterized by stable and clean postures and stances, i.e., he is able to conclude the movements without hesitation, noisy small fluctuations or movement ripples. To...

This abstract presents a computational model and a software library for the EyesWeb XMI platform to measure a mid-level movement quality of particular importance to convey expressivity: Postural Tension. A whole body posture can be described by a vector containing the angles between the adjacent lines identifying feet (the line connecting the...

Recent results from psychophysics and developmental psychology show that children do not integrate and use the same sensory modalities in the same way, but they rather have a preferential sensory channel to learn specific concepts. In schools, however, the visual channel is often the only one exploited for teaching, whereas the other channels...

The International Workshop on Multimodal Interaction for Education aims at investigating how multimodal interactive systems, firmly grounded on psychophysical, psychological, and pedagogical bases, can be designed, developed, and exploited for enhancing teaching and learning processes in different learning environments, with a special focus on...
