Abstract

This paper describes the collection and annotation of comparable multimodal corpora for Nordic languages in a project involving research groups from Denmark, Estonia, Finland and Sweden. The goal of the project is to provide annotated multimodal resources to study communicative phenomena, such as feedback, turn-taking and sequencing in the languages involved in the project and to compare these phenomena. Studies so far include verbal expressions, head movements and facial expressions related to feedback.
