Abstract
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> Structural information in language is important for obtaining a better understanding of a human communication (e.g., sentence segmentation, speaker turns, and topic segmentation). Human communication involves a variety of multimodal behaviors that signal both propositional content and structure, e.g., gesture, gaze, and body posture. These non-verbal signals have tight temporal and semantic links to spoken content. In my thesis, I am working on incorporating non-verbal cues into a multimodal model to better predict the structural events to further improve the understanding of human communication.</Paragraph>
