Multimodal Interfaces
Abstract
This chapter reviews the main types of multimodal interfaces, their advantages and cognitive science underpinnings, primary features and architectural characteristics, and general research in the field of multimodal interaction and interface design. Multimodal systems have developed rapidly during the past decade, with steady progress toward building more general and robust systems, as well as more transparent human interfaces than ever before. Major developments have occurred in the hardware and software needed to support key component technologies incorporated within multimodal systems, as well as in techniques for integrating parallel input streams. Current natural language-processing algorithms typically rely heavily on the specification of determiners in definite and indefinite references in order to represent and resolve noun phrase reference. Over the past decade, numerous advantages of multimodal interface design have been documented. Unlike a traditional keyboard-and-mouse interface or a unimodal recognition-based interface, multimodal interfaces permit flexible use of input modes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
