TL;DR: It is found that the technique of seeding a Fisher Projection with the results of sequential floating forward search improves the performance of the Fisher Projections and provides the highest recognition rates reported to date for classification of affect from physiology: 81 percent recognition accuracy on eight classes of emotion, including neutral.

TL;DR: The results show that for most drivers studied, skin conductivity and heart rate metrics are most closely correlated with driver stress level, indicating that physiological signals can provide a metric of driver stress in future cars capable of physiological monitoring.

TL;DR: A text-based augmented reality, the Remembrance Agent, is presented to illustrate this approach, and a long-term goal of this project is to model the user's actions, anticipate his or her needs, and perform a seamless interaction between the virtual and physical environments.

TL;DR: A number of issues important for designing activity detection systems that may not have been as evident in prior work when data was collected under more controlled conditions are characterized.

TL;DR: In this paper, a conversational browsing architecture is provided for use with authoring techniques and information browsing mechanisms associated therewith, which employ programming in association with mixed-initiative multi-modal interactions and natural language understanding for use in dialog systems.
