Recent research identified sixteen dimensions along which sound designers make decisions when ideating and sketching sounds. These 16 dimensions can be grouped into “Overarching strategies”, “Design Strategies” and “Approaches to sound”. In this paper, ...

Workshop ideation activities are often described with little attention to the role of the facilitator – a role often portrayed as following a recipe, and not getting in the way of the process. Our experience tells a different story. In this provocation, ...

Design ideation requires both creative and divergent thinking as well as collaboration and exchange to bring forth new insights and design possibilities. In this paper, we investigate such a collaboration with the use of emerging generative AI tools, ...

As search evolves and Generative AI enables users to express more complex information needs and goals, it is an opportune moment to investigate how the search for information influences creativity. Little is known about how creators — especially novices ...

Profound transformations are currently impacting the intricate relationships between human pastoral activities and Alpine mountain ecosystems. In this context, we were invited as human-computer interaction practitioners to join an interdisciplinary team,...

We present DeepTreeSketch, a novel AI-assisted sketching system that enables users to create realistic 3D tree models from 2D freehand sketches. Our system leverages a tree graph prediction network, TGP-Net, to learn the underlying structural patterns ...

Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have enabled unprecedented capabilities, yet innovation teams struggle when envisioning AI concepts. Data science teams think of innovations users do not want, while domain experts think of innovations that ...

Collaborative ideation plays a vital role in driving creativity and innovation across various professional and educational contexts. This study investigates the experiences of disabled individuals within the collaborative ideation process, specifically ...

Authors test previously published theory-based models in a sample of idea-screening contests and find that efficient, automated screening is possible using easy-to-collect data.

Crowdsourcing generates up to thousands of ideas per contest. The selection of best ideas is costly because of the limited number, objectivity, and attention of experts. Using a data set of 21 crowdsourcing contests that include 4,191 ideas, we test how ...

This paper describes an ideation workshop aiming to explore the intersection of sonic interactions and energy use. As part of a larger research project exploring the role that sound can play in efficient energy behaviours, the workshop encouraged users ...

Text-to-image AI are capable of generating novel images for inspiration, but their applications for 3D design workflows and how designers can build 3D models using AI-provided inspiration have not yet been explored. To investigate this, we integrated ...

During past decades, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been consistently used in Creativity Support Tools (CSTs). Recently, with the development of generative AI models, particularly Generative Adversarial Nets (GAN) in Computer Vision, it became ...

Advances in artificial intelligence have enabled unprecedented technical capabilities, yet making these advances useful in the real world remains challenging. We engaged in a Research through Design process to improve the ideation of AI products and ...

Generative machine learning models provide opportunities to support design work in various parts of the design process. This study investigates how generative machine learning and large language models may play a part in creative design processes of ...

This pictorial showcases the integration of AI into the design process through the use of image generators. Following a Research Through Design (RTD) approach, we recruited 6 designers to create design proposals with AI. They were invited to collect case ...

During past decades, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been consistently used in Creativity Support Tools (CSTs). Recently, with the development of generative AI models, particularly Generative Adversarial Nets (GAN) in Computer Vision, it became ...

Design fixation, a phenomenon describing designers' adherence to pre-existing ideas or concepts that constrain design outcomes, is particularly prevalent in human-robot interaction (HRI), for example, due to collectively held and stabilised imaginations ...

Image search engines enable the retrieval of images relevant to a query image. In this work, we consider the setting where a query for similar images is derived from a collection of images. For visual search, the similarity measurements may be made along ...

Advances in multimodal AI have presented people with powerful ways to create images from text. Recent work has shown that text-to-image generations are able to represent a broad range of subjects and artistic styles. However, finding the right visual ...

Location-based games can engage visitors of a cultural site in learning and sensitization activities about local heritage. This paper reflects on the design thinking approach followed to develop a mobile learning game about the cultural heritage (CH) of ...
