Summary
We present three types of data collections and their experimental paradigms. The resulting data were employed to conduct a number of annotation experiments, create evaluation gold standards and train statistical models. The data, experiments and their analyses highlight the importance of data-driven empirical laboratory and field work for research on intuitive multimodal human-computer interfaces.
