Abstract

This tutorial highlights the characteristics of mobile search comparing with its desktop counterpart, reviews the state of art technologies of speech-based mobile search, and presents opportunities for exploiting multimodal interaction to optimize the efficiency of mobile search. It is suitable for students, researchers and practitioners working in the areas of spoken language processing, multimodal and search with an emphasis on a synergistic integration of these technologies for applications on mobile devices. We will provide detailed bibliography and sufficient literature for everyone interested to jumpstart work on this topic.
