Abstract

Face-to-face communication conveys social context as well as words, and it is this social signaling that allows new information to be smoothly integrated into a shared, group-wide understanding. By building machines that understand social signaling and social context we can begin to make communication tools that keep remote users 'in the loop,' and can dramatically improve collective decision making.
