A Nordic Network for
MUltiModal INterfaces
The aim of the Nordic Network for MultiModal Interfaces (MUMIN) was to
stimulate Nordic research in the area of multimodal interfaces, and
increase its visibility in the international research community. MUMIN
has done so by:
-
encouraging joint activities in building generic models and
architectures as well as defining standards for the integration and development
of multimodal interaction;
-
encouraging investigations on the use of multimodality in
various applications;
-
providing a forum for sharing resources and results;
-
organising PhD courses and workshops on issues related
to multimodal interaction;
-
creating a network of contacts and a pool of shared knowledge
that can be taken advantage of for the definition of collaborative research
projects and for product development.
MUMIN was funded by the language technology programme under NorFA,
now NordForsk. MUMIN has
formally stopped its activities (the funding has come to an end). For
recent related activities, see the NOMCO project and the Multimodal Corpora
workshops site.
