View article: There is a power law of joint communicative effort and it reflects communicative work
There is a power law of joint communicative effort and it reflects communicative work Open
A drive towards efficiency seems to regulate communicative processes and ultimately language change. In line with efficiency principles, signed, spoken, and/or gestural utterances tend to reduce in overall effort over repeated referrals in…

Learning Co-Speech Gesture Representations in Dialogue through Contrastive Learning: An Intrinsic Evaluation Open
In face-to-face dialogues, the form-meaning relationship of co-speech\ngestures varies depending on contextual factors such as what the gestures refer\nto and the individual characteristics of speakers. These factors make co-speech\ngestur…

Analysing Cross-Speaker Convergence in Face-to-Face Dialogue through the Lens of Automatically Detected Shared Linguistic Constructions Open
Conversation requires a substantial amount of coordination between dialogue participants, from managing turn taking to negotiating mutual understanding. Part of this coordination effort surfaces as the reuse of linguistic behaviour across …

Leveraging Speech for Gesture Detection in Multimodal Communication Open
Gestures are inherent to human interaction and often complement speech in face-to-face communication, forming a multimodal communication system. An important task in gesture analysis is detecting a gesture's beginning and end. Research on …

Reimagining language Open
What is language and who or what can be said to have it? In this essay we consider this question in the context of interactions with non-humans, specifically: animals and computers. While perhaps an odd pairing at first glance, here we arg…

Co-Speech Gesture Detection through Multi-Phase Sequence Labeling Open
Gestures are integral components of face-to-face communication. They unfold over time, often following predictable movement phases of preparation, stroke, and retraction. Yet, the prevalent approach to automatic gesture detection treats th…

Beyond Single‐Mindedness: A Figure‐Ground Reversal for the Cognitive Sciences Open
A fundamental fact about human minds is that they are never truly alone: all minds are steeped in situated interaction. That social interaction matters is recognized by any experimentalist who seeks to exclude its influence by studying ind…

The multimodal nature of communicative efficiency in social interaction Open
How does communicative efficiency shape language use? We approach this question by studying it at the level of the dyad, and in terms of multimodal utterances. We investigate whether and how people minimize their joint speech and gesture e…

The Primacy of Multimodal Alignment in Converging on Shared Symbols for Novel Referents Open
When people interact to establish shared symbols for novel objects or concepts, they often rely on multiple communicative modalities as well as on alignment (i.e., cross-participant repetition of communicative behavior). Yet these interact…

Semantically related gestures move alike: Towards a distributional semantics of gesture kinematics Open
Most manual communicative gestures that humans produce cannot be looked up in a dictionary, as these manual gestures inherit their meaning in large part from the communicative context and are not conventionalized. However, it is understudi…

Alignment in Multimodal Interaction: An Integrative Framework Open
When people are engaged in social interaction, they can repeat aspects of each other’s communicative behavior, such as words or gestures. This kind of behavioral alignment has been studied across a wide range of disciplines and has been ac…
