Abstract
Very often in articles on monomodal human-machine-interaction (HMI) it is pointed out that the results can strongly be improved if other modalities are taken into account. In this contribution we look at two different problems in HMI: the detection of emotion or user state and the question whether the user is currently interacting with the machine, himself or another person (On/Off-Focus). We present monomodal classification results for these two problems and discuss whether multimodal classification seems to be promising for the respective problem. Different fusion models are considered. The examples are taken from the German HMI projects "SmartKom" and "SmartWeb".
