International Workshop on Spoken Language Translation (IWSLT) 2016 – Session 2
Talks and presentations from the International Workshop on Spoken Language Translation (IWSLT) 2016. IWSLT is an annual workshop on annual scientific workshop on Spoken Language Translation and related technologies (e.g., Automated Speech Recognition, Machine Translation,…
Touch-Sensing Input Devices
We can touch things, and our senses tell us when our hands are touching something. But most computer input devices cannot detect when the user touches or releases the device or some portion of the…
Software-defined batteries
Always-Available Mobile Interfaces
We have continually evolved computing to not only be more efficient, but also more accessible, more of the time (and place), and to more people. We have progressed from batch computing with punch cards, to…
Muscle-Computer Interfaces (muCIs)
We explore the feasibility of muscle-computer input: an interaction methodology that directly senses and decodes human muscular activity rather than relying on physical device actuation or user actions that are externally visible or audible.
Humantenna: Sensing Gestures Using the Body as an Antenna
We use the human body as an antenna for sensing whole-body gestures. Such an approach requires no instrumentation to the environment, and only minimal instrumentation to the user, thus enabling truly mobile applications.
