    MOTIVATION

    The primary purpose of this one day workshop is to share information
    and engage in the collective planning for the future
    creation of usable multidisciplinary multimodal resources.

    It will focus on the following issues regarding multimodal corpora:
    - how researchers build models of human behaviour out of the annotations
    of video corpora,
    - how they use such knowledge for the specification of multimodal
      input (e.g. merging users' gestures and speech )
      and output (e.g. specification of believable and
      emotional behaviour in Embodied Conversational Agents) in human
    computer interfaces,
    - and finally how they evaluate multimodal systems
      (e.g. full system evaluation and glass box evaluation of individual
    system components).
