Using vocal interfaces in complex applications leads to more intuitive interactions. At the University of Technology of Compiègne, we have built a collaborative environment from a large graphics table, interactive board and peripheral devices for supporting preliminary cooperative design. The environment support unique multimodal interaction through intelligent personal assistant agents and this paper details the architecture and implementation of their vocal interfaces, as well as the multiagent middleware, using two different multi-agent platforms.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
