Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
978-0-387-73818-5 (ISBN)
The overview of each technology includes: 1. The history and the development of the technology. 2. What are the hot research topics/interests in the technology? 3. What kind of mistakes/assumption that people has tried, so to avoid repeating the mistakes. 4. What can be the special interests/problems in different application areas? 5. The trend of the technical development in the coming few years.
The overview of each application area includes: 1. The history of the application studies. 2. What kind of speech technologies are interested in the application. 3. The analysis of the factors that affect the real-time application. 4. What can be the possible usability requirements and interaction design problems? 5. The trend of the research focus in the coming few years.
One of the special characteristics of the book is that the authors will not just present their own research work, but take a broad view of the multiple research areas and take the multidisciplinary approach to the topics. One of the goals in this book is to emphasize the application. User experience, human factors and usability issues are the focus in this book.
Dr. Chen is an associate professor at the Computing Science Department, Chalmers University of Sweden. She has been working in Human Factors and Ergonomics research for over 20 years and has published over 20 papers in the cognitive science specially related to speech technology application. Chen has over 20 years teaching and research experience on ergonomics, human factors and human-computer interaction. She has been teaching on human cognition, human-computer interaction, usability and user-centered design, and research methodology in undergraduate and graduate level. In the past 8 years, her research interests in focused on speech and multimodal interaction design in different applications. Dr. Jokinen is a Professor of Language Technology at the University of Helsinki. She has played a leading role in several academic and industrial research projects concerning spoken dialogue systems, cooperative communication, adaptation, and multimodality. She has published a large number of articles and papers, organized many workshops in major international workshops, and given several invited talks and seminars. She is the secretary of the SIGDial, the ISCA/ACL Special Interest Group for Discourse and Dialogue.
