This is funding to support participation by about 12 graduate students (10 from U.S. institutions and 2 from non-U.S. institutions) and 5-6 senior members of the ICMI community (faculty and industry researchers) in a Doctoral Consortium (workshop) to be held in conjunction with and immediately preceding the 14th International Conference on Multimodal Interaction (ICMI 2012), which will take place October 23-26, 2012, in Santa Monica, California, and which is organized by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). The ICMI conference series is the premier international forum for multidisciplinary research on multimodal human-human and human-computer interaction, interfaces, and system development. The conference focuses on theoretical and empirical foundations, component technologies, and combined multimodal processing techniques that define the field of multimodal interaction analysis, interface design, and system development. Topics of special interest to the conference this year include multimodal interaction processing, interactive systems and applications, modeling human communication patterns, and data, evaluation and standards for multimodal interactive systems. ICMI 2012 will feature a single-track main conference which includes: keynote speakers, technical full and short papers (including oral and poster presentations), special sessions, demonstrations, exhibits and doctoral spotlight papers. The ICMI 2012 proceedings will be published by ACM as part of their series of International Conference Proceedings. More information about the conference may be found at http://www.acm.org/icmi/2012. The goal of the ICMI Doctoral Consortium is to provide PhD students with an opportunity to present their work to a group of mentors and peers from a diverse set of academic and industrial institutions, to receive feedback on their doctoral research plan and progress, and to build a cohort of young researchers interested in designing multimodal interfaces. Student participants will present their ongoing thesis research as a short talk at the Consortium and also as a poster at the conference Doctoral Spotlight Session. This year, the organizers seek to expand the scope of the Doctoral Consortium to provide more opportunities for interaction between the students and senior members of the field; to this end, the program will also include a lunch on the day of the workshop for students and mentors, a career panel that will provide the students and mentors the opportunity to ask and answer questions and discuss challenges and opportunities in the field, and a dinner that will provide the students with the opportunity to hold informal conversations among themselves as well as with the organizers and mentors.Broader Impacts: The Doctoral Consortium will give student participants exposure to their new research community, both by presenting their own work and by observing and interacting with established professionals in the field. It will encourage students at this critical time in their careers to begin building a social support network of peers and mentors. The organizers will take steps proactively to achieve a diversity of research topics, disciplinary backgrounds, methodological approaches, and home institutions among the students. Priority will be given first to minority students, female students, students from geographically underrepresented states, and finally to students whose advisors or departments have insufficient funds to support their participation in the conference. To further increase diversity up to two student participants may be invited from abroad, and no more than two will be invited from any given U.S. institution of higher learning.

这是为了支持大约12名研究生（来自美国机构的10名和非美国机构的12名研究生）和ICMI社区（教职员工和行业研究人员）的5-6名高级成员（车间）（研讨会），将在与Monododal Interactions（ICMI Interaction intancy 2012年）进行，并在2012年ICMI Interaction（ICMI Monica）进行之前，将在2012年举行。加利福尼亚州，由计算机协会（ACM）组织。 ICMI会议系列是关于多模式人类和人类计算机互动，界面和系统开发的多学科研究的首要国际论坛。会议的重点是理论和经验基础，组件技术以及组合的多模式处理技术，这些技术定义了多模式交互分析，界面设计和系统开发领域。 今年会议特别感兴趣的主题包括多模式互动处理，交互式系统和应用，对人类交流模式进行建模，以及对多模式交互系统的数据，评估和标准。 ICMI 2012将举办一次单轨主会议，其中包括：主题演讲者，技术完整和短篇论文（包括口头和海报演示），特别会议，示范，展览和博士聚光灯论文。 ICMI 2012诉讼将由ACM作为其系列国际会议论文集的一部分发布。 有关会议的更多信息，请访问http://www.acm.org/icmi/2012。 ICMI博士联盟的目的是为博士生提供机会，向来自各种学术和工业机构的一组导师和同伴展示其工作，以接收有关其博士研究计划和进步的反馈，并建立一系列对设计多模态接口感兴趣的年轻研究人员。 学生参与者将在财团中介绍他们正在进行的论文研究，并在会议博士聚焦会议上作为海报。 今年，组织者试图扩大博士联盟的范围，以提供更多的学生与该领域高级成员之间的互动机会；为此，该计划还将在为学生和导师的研讨会时期包括午餐，一个职业小组，将为学生和导师提供机会提出和回答问题，讨论该领域的挑战和机会，并为学生提供机会，以便为自己的组织和培训者提供社区的活动，以使学生与他们之间的启动。观察并与该领域既定的专业人员进行互动。 它将鼓励学生在职业生涯中的这个关键时刻开始建立同行和导师的社会支持网络。 组织者将积极采取步骤，以实现学生中各种各样的研究主题，纪律背景，方法论方法和家庭机构。 首先将优先给少数民族学生，女学生，来自地理位置不足的州的学生，最后是其顾问或部门不足资金无法支持他们参加会议的学生。 为了进一步提高多样性，最多可能会邀请两名学生参与者，而来自任何给定的美国高等教育机构将不超过两个。
