Gesture and Liturgical Gesture [PDF]
Phainomena, 2023 The usual interpretations of gestuality presuppose that a gesture accompanies the expressive action, whereby it itself almost disappears, in order to make way for what the person gesturing wants to show as appertaining to his or her interiority. The intention of the present paper is to demonstrate how a gesture cannot be considered as something ...

Grasping gestures: Gesturing with physical artifacts [PDF]
Artificial Intelligence for Engineering Design, Analysis and Manufacturing, 2011 AbstractGestures play an important role in communication. They support the listener, who is trying to understand the speaker. However, they also support the speaker by facilitating the conceptualization and verbalization of messages and reducing cognitive load. Gestures thus play an important role in collaboration and also in problem-solving tasks.

What Makes a Gesture a Gesture? Neural Signatures Involved in Gesture Recognition [PDF]
2017 12th IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face & Gesture Recognition (FG 2017), 2017 Previous work in the area of gesture production, has made the assumption that machines can replicate "human-like" gestures by connecting a bounded set of salient points in the motion trajectory. Those inflection points were hypothesized to also display cognitive saliency. The purpose of this paper is to validate that claim using electroencephalography (

To gesture or not to gesture: what is the question?
Proceedings Computer Graphics International 2000, 2002 Computer synthesized characters are expected to make appropriate face, limb, and body gestures during communicative acts. We focus on non-facial movements and try to elucidate what is intended with the notions of "gesture" and "naturalness". We argue that looking only at the psychological notion of gesture and gesture type is insufficient to capture ...

Gesture-controlled image system positioning for minimally invasive interventions
Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2021 This work examines how a touchless interaction concept contributes to an efficient, direct, and sterile interaction workflow during CT-guided interventions. Two hand gesture sets were designed specifically under consideration of the clinical workflow and

Prosody in the Auditory and Visual Domains: A Developmental Perspective
Frontiers in Psychology, 2018 The development of body movements such as hand or head gestures, or facial expressions, seems to go hand-in-hand with the development of speech abilities.

Iconic gestures as undervalued representations during science teaching
Cogent Education, 2015 Iconic gestures that are ubiquitous in speech are integral to human meaning-making. However, few studies have attempted to map out the role of these gestures in science teaching.

Revue de Primatologie, 2014 Most language functions are under the dominance of the left cerebral hemisphere and involve a complex neural network in which some cerebral regions play a key-role such as Broca’s and Wernicke's areas within the frontal and the temporal lobes ...
