Object detection tasks still often require manual image analysis. Using Machine Learning (ML) instead creates accountability challenges, necessitating experts for model refinement, which is costly and takes time. We investigate integrating crowd ...

Intelligent user interfaces for human-machine interaction should be intuitive, invisible, and embodied in the user’s natural physical environment. Despite recent advances, most computing systems still lack interfaces that can perceive complex ...

Intelligent suggestion techniques can enable low-friction selection-based input within virtual or augmented reality (VR/AR) systems. Such techniques leverage probability estimates from a target prediction model to provide users with an easy-to-use ...

As computer programming becomes more important to various fields and disciplines and as it is more commonly taught in education settings, the number of end-users with basic programming experience is increasing. The importance of being able to easily and ...

New technologies are changing the way we learn and teach. Emerging technologies such as social semantic web, cloud computing, and the growing popularity of mobile devices, embedded devices and adaptive context-aware technologies are leading to a paradigm ...

Intelligent interfaces have moved into the mainstream, but often using black-box algorithms that even the developers, let alone the users can understand. Human-like computing is about making algorithms closer to the way humans' think in order to improve ...

Many documents (e.g., academic papers, government reports) are typically written by multiple authors. While existing tools facilitate and support such collaborative efforts (e.g., Dropbox, Google Docs), these tools lack intelligent information sharing ...

The Engineering community faces a number of issues around its role in the larger CHI community and its contribution to SIGCHI-sponsored conferences. This SIG aims to stimulate discussion and attention on the work of researchers interested in the ...

When intelligent interfaces, such as intelligent desktop assistants, email classifiers, and recommender systems, customize themselves to a particular end user, such customizations can decrease productivity and increase frustration due to inaccurate ...

While conviviality has simultaneously been defined in the literature as individual freedom realised in personal interdependence, rational and cooperative behaviour and normative instrument, no model has yet been proposed for computer science. In this ...

It becomes more and more important to develop an intelligent interface flexibly mediating human beings and computers than the evolution of computer hardware. Typical problems required for progress are, for instance, "How do we acquire and process Kansei ...

Intelligent desktop assistants could provide more help for users if they could learn models of the users' workflows. However, discovering desktop workflows is difficult because they unfold over extended periods of time (days or weeks) and they are ...

A growing number of tools is becoming available, that make use ofexisting tags to help organize and retrieve photos, facilitating the management and use of photo sets. The tagging on which these techniques rely remains a time consuming, labor intensive ...

In this paper we describe the User Modeling phase of our general research approach: developing Adaptive Intelligent User Interfaces to facilitate enhanced natural communication during the Human-Computer Interaction. Natural communication is established ...

The emergence of the accessible knowledge society for all underlines the need for all to acquire the necessary knowledge and skills for inclusion. One way to do so is through e-learning, which itself should be accessible to all intended users. The mere ...

Advances in sensor technology, embedded processing power, and modeling and reasoning software, have created the possibility for everyday products to sense the environment and pro-actively anticipate user needs. There is however a risk of creating ...

We employ the techniques of ontology and linguistics to develop a fully-automatic annotation technique, which, when coupled with an automatic ontology construction method, can play a key role in the development of semantic portals. Based on this ...

For the last decades, computer users have been witnessing new paradigms in human computer interfaces technology. The arrival of new gadgets and technologies is boosting the way into the realization of friendly and easy-to-use interfaces. Libraries ...

The availability of metadata annotations over media content such as photos is known to enhance retrieval and organization, particularly for large data sets. The greatest challenge for obtaining annotations remains getting users to perform the large ...
