Upcoming:
25.09. – 27.09.2024:
Second International MultiModal Communication Symposium (MMSYM 2024) in Frankfurt!
We are hosting the next MMSYM at Goethe University Frankfurt.
MMSYM 2024 wants to emphasize the following three main research themes: (1) The gesture-speech integration, in particular the prosody-gesture link, (2) formal, automatic and machine-learning approaches to multimodality, and (3) psycholinguistic approaches in multimodal settings.
See the MMSYM 2024 website: mmsym.org and the Call for Papers for more info:
