SpeakerB.HandGesture

Speaker B: Hand gesture track. All attributes are the same as for Speaker A.

Attributes
`ValueSet "Handedness-type" (2 tokens)`	Handedness	It refers to whether one or two hands are involved.
`ValueSet "Palm-type" (3 tokens)`	Palm	It refers to whether the palm is open or closed. New wrt. MUMIN 3.3.
`ValueSet "Palm-pos-type" (4 tokens)`	PalmPos	It refers to the position of the palm in space. New wrt. MUMIN 3.3.
`ValueSet "Fingers-type" (4 tokens)`	Fingers	It accounts for finger extension. New wrt. MUMIN 3.3.
`ValueSet "Amplitude-type" (3 tokens)`	Amplitude	It accounts for how broad the gesture is. New wrt. MUMIN 3.3.
`ValueSet "Trajectory-Right-Hand-type" (7 tokens)`	TrajectoryRightHand	Similar values to those used for the direction of gaze, head and body. The feature also indicates the trajectory of the fingers if extended. The value 'complex' is a combination of several of the more basic ones. 'Other' should be used if none of the other values can be applied, and a comment must then be added. In MUMIN 3.3. there is a general trajectory feature that does not distinguish between left and righ hands.
`ValueSet "Trajectory-Left-Hand-type" (7 tokens)`	TrajectoryLeftHand	The same values as for Trajectory Right Hand. The feature also indicates the trajectory of the fingers if extended. The value 'complex' is a combination of several of the more basic ones. 'Other' should be used if none of the other values can be applied, and a comment must then be added. In MUMIN 3.3. there is a general trajectory feature that does not distinguish between left and righ hands.
`ValueSet "Hand-Repetition-type" (2 tokens)`	HandRepetition	It indicates whether the movement is repeated or not. A repeated gesture is a sequence of similar gestures in rapid succession. See also HeadRepetition. New feature wrt. MUMIN 3.3.
`ValueSet "F-Basic-type" (2 tokens)`	FeedbackBasic	The basic feedback feature is used to distinguish between feedback giving and eliciting.
`ValueSet "F-Understand-type" (2 tokens)`	FeedbackUnderstanding	Feedback understanding is used to specify whether basic feedback is accompanied by signs of understanding or non-understanding.
`ValueSet "F-Acceptance-type" (2 tokens)`	FeedbackAcceptance	Basic feedback can also be accompanied by signs of agreeing or not agreeing.
`ValueSet "Emotion/Attitude-type" (13 tokens)`	Emotion/Attitude	Emotions and attitudes can co-occur with any of the communicative features. They include i.a. Ekman's six basic emotions: happiness, surprise, anger, sadness, fear, disgust/contempt.
`ValueSet "Turn-type" (6 tokens)`	Turn	Turn features refer to the way in which one of the dialogue participants gains, ends or holds the turn, and reflect whether this is done in agreement or not. In a more coarse-grained scheme, one could do with the three values TurnGain, TurnEnd and TurnHold (see MUMIN 3.3).
`ValueSet "Sequencing-type" (4 tokens)`	Sequencing	Sequencing is concerned with speech act organisation and structuring into sub-dialogues. It should not be confused with turn-management, that models turn shifts among dialogue participants.
`ValueSet "InformationStructure-type" (1 tokens)`	InformationStructure	The gesture has a function relating to information structure, i.e. the organisation of the information within a sentence or utterance. It could be underlining the topic, the focus or creating a contrast.
`ValueSet "Semiotic-type" (6 tokens)`	SemioticType	Based on Peirce's theory, three types are defined: indexical, iconic and symbolic. Combinations are also allowed, which is new wrt. MUMIN 3.3.
`MultiLink`	Addition	The gesture adds information to the corresponding speech segment, e.g. by making a concept more specific. See Poggi and Magno Caldognetto (1996). The feature was subsumed under Compatible in MUMIN 3.3.
`MultiLink`	Reinforcement	The gesture has the same meaning as the corresponding speech segment. See Poggi and Magno Caldognetto (1996). It was subsumed under Compatible in MUMIN 3.3.
`MultiLink`	Substitution	The gesture occurs in absence of words. See Poggi and Magno Caldognetto (1996).
`MultiLink`	Contradiction	The gesture contradicts the corresponding speech segment e.g. to denote sarcasm or irony. See Poggi and Magno Caldognetto (1996). It corresponds to Incompatible in MUMIN 3.3.
`MultiLink`	RelationOther	To be used if none of the other values are appropriate. A comment must be added.

FeedbackBasic

The basic feedback feature is used to distinguish between feedback giving and eliciting.

FeedbackGive	The subject shows they have perceived the message and are willing to maintain contact and go on in the communication. In MUMIN 3.3, the two subtypes CPU and CP were distinguished.
FeedbackElicit	The subject elicits willingness to maintain contact and go on in the communication, or signs that the interlocutor has perceived the message. In MUMIN 3.3, the two subtypes CPU and CP were distinguished.

FeedbackUnderstanding

Feedback understanding is used to specify whether basic feedback is accompanied by signs of understanding or non-understanding.

Accept	The subject gives or elicits signs of agreement.
NonAccept	The subject gives or elicits signs of lack of agreement.

Turn

Turn features refer to the way in which one of the dialogue participants gains, ends or holds the turn, and reflect whether this is done in agreement or not. In a more coarse-grained scheme, one could do with the three values TurnGain, TurnEnd and TurnHold (see MUMIN 3.3).

TurnTake	The speaker takes a turn that wasn't offered, possibly by interrupting.
TurnAccept	The speaker accepts a turn that is being offered.
TurnYield	The speaker releases the turn under pressure.
TurnElicit	The speaker offers the turn to the interlocutor.
TurnComplete	The speaker completes the turn as well as the conversation. The turn is not passed on.
TurnHold	The speaker wishes to keep the turn (usually done by rotating the head and the gaze away from the listener).

Sequencing

Sequencing is concerned with speech act organisation and structuring into sub-dialogues. It should not be confused with turn-management, that models turn shifts among dialogue participants.

SeqOpen	Opening uence indicates that a new speech sequence is starting, e.g. a gesture occurring together with the phrase "by the way...".
SeqResume	Resume sequence indicates that a preceding speech sequence is resumed after an interruption or a false start.
SeqContinue	Continue sequence indicates that the current speech sequence is going on, e.g. a gesture occurring together with enumerative phrases such as "the first... the second... the third...".
SeqClose	Closing sequence indicates that the current speech sequence is closed, e.g. a gesture occurring together with phrases such as "that's it, that's all".

InformationStructure

The gesture has a function relating to information structure, i.e. the organisation of the information within a sentence or utterance. It could be underlining the topic, the focus or creating a contrast.

SemioticType

Based on Peirce's theory, three types are defined: indexical, iconic and symbolic. Combinations are also allowed, which is new wrt. MUMIN 3.3.

IndexDeictic	Indexical gestures express a relation of cause-effect between the sign (the gesture) and its meaning. In particular, Indexical Deictics locate aspects of the discourse in the physical space (e.g. by pointing). They can also be used to index the addressee.
IndexNon-deictic	Indexical gestures express a relation of cause-effect between the sign (the gesture) and its meaning. In Indexical Non-deictic the indexical relation is between the gesture and the effect it establishes. Batonic or beat gestures fall into this category.
Iconic	Iconic gestures express a semantic feature by similarity or homomorphism. Examples are gestures that express size (length, height, etc.) of an object mentioned in the discourse. Included in this category are also gestures that are sometimes called metaphoric.
Symbolic	Symbolic gestures (emblems) are gestures in which the relation between form and content is based on social convention (e.g. the okay gesture). They are culture-specific.
IconicandIndexNon-deictic	Iconic and IndexNon-deictic. New type wrt. MUMIN 3.3.
SymbolicandIndexNon-deictic	Simbolic and IndexNon-deictic. New type wrt. MUMIN 3.3.

Addition

The gesture adds information to the corresponding speech segment, e.g. by making a concept more specific. See Poggi and Magno Caldognetto (1996). The feature was subsumed under Compatible in MUMIN 3.3.

Reinforcement

The gesture has the same meaning as the corresponding speech segment. See Poggi and Magno Caldognetto (1996). It was subsumed under Compatible in MUMIN 3.3.

Substitution

The gesture occurs in absence of words. See Poggi and Magno Caldognetto (1996).

Contradiction

The gesture contradicts the corresponding speech segment e.g. to denote sarcasm or irony. See Poggi and Magno Caldognetto (1996). It corresponds to Incompatible in MUMIN 3.3.

RelationOther

To be used if none of the other values are appropriate. A comment *must* be added.
