Vocal interaction research has primarily been focused on the use of systems for automatic speech recognition and synthesis. Whilst ASR has been successful in various domains, it can be impractical in some contexts of use such as in time-sensitive and continuous controls and in applications involving users with speech impairment. This workshop aims to discuss the state of the art in vocal interaction methods that go beyond word recognition by exploiting the information contained within non-verbal vocalizations (e.g. pitch, volume, or timbre). The overarching objective of this workshop is to sketch a research agenda on the topic of the emerging discipline of non-verbal vocal interaction and its implications for the design of interactive systems. The workshop will be of interest to researchers, designers, developers, and users that are interested or would benefit from use of the non-verbal interaction.
