This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on Gesture and Sign Languages Based Human-Computer Interaction, GW 2003, held in Genova, Italy in April 2003.
The 51 revised papers presented were carefully selected from numerous submissions during two rounds of reviewing and improvement. The papers are organized in topical sections on foundational issues, gesture tracking, gesture recognition, gesture notation and synthesis, multimodal gestural interfaces, and gestures in multimedia and performing arts.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on Gesture and Sign Languages Based Human-Computer Interaction, GW 2003, held in Genova, Italy in April 2003.

The 51 revised papers presented were carefully selected from numerous submissions during two rounds of reviewing and improvement. The papers are organized in topical sections on foundational issues, gesture tracking, gesture recognition, gesture notation and synthesis, multimodal gestural interfaces, and gestures in multimedia and performing arts.
Research on the multifaceted aspects of modeling, analysis, and synthesis of - man gesture is receiving growing interest from both the academic and industrial communities. On one hand, recent scienti?c developments on cognition, on - fect/emotion, on multimodal interfaces, and on multimedia have opened new perspectives on the integration of more sophisticated models of gesture in c- putersystems.Ontheotherhand,theconsolidationofnewtechnologiesenabling "disappearing" computers and (multimodal) interfaces to be integrated into the natural environments of users are making it realistic to consider tackling the complex meaning and subtleties of human gesture in multimedia systems, - abling a deeper, user-centered, enhanced physical participation and experience in the human-machine interaction process. The research programs supported by the European Commission and s- eral national institutions and governments individuated in recent years strategic ?elds strictly concerned with gesture research. For example, the DG Infor- tion Society of the European Commission (www.cordis.lu/ist) supports several initiatives, such as the "Disappearing Computer" and "Presence" EU-IST FET (Future and Emerging Technologies), the IST program "Interfaces & Enhanced Audio-Visual Services" (see for example the project MEGA, Multisensory - pressive Gesture Applications, www.megaproject.org), and the IST strategic - jective "Multimodal Interfaces." Several EC projects and other funded research are represented in the chapters of this book.
