Research overview

Our goal is to develop next-generation human-machine interfaces that offer human-like interactive capabilities. To this end, we research fundamental computational methods as well as ambient and on-body systems to sense, model, and analyse everyday non-verbal human behavior and cognition.

Our research towards this goal spans five main areas: Cognition-aware Computing, Social Signal Processing, Multimodal Interaction, Attentive User Interfaces, and Usable Security and Privacy.

Please find selected key publications for each area below.
