Guiding people to information: providing an interface to a digital library using reference as a basis for indexing
We describe Rosetta, a digital library system for scientific literature. Rosetta makes it easy for people to find the information for which they are looking even when using short, imprecise queries. Rosetta indexes research articles based on the way ...
User interactions with everyday applications as context for just-in-time information access
Our central claim is that user interactions with everyday productivity applications (e.g., word processors, Web browsers, etc.) provide rich contextual information that can be leveraged to support just-in-time access to task-relevant information. We ...
More than just a pretty face: affordances of embodiment
Prior research into embodied interface agents has found that users like them and find them engaging. In this paper, we argue that embodiment can serve an even stronger function if system designers use actual human conversational protocols in the design ...
Data exploration across temporal contexts
The ability to quickly explore and compare multiple scenarios is an important component of exploratory data analysis. Yet today's interfaces cannot represent alternative exploration paths as a branching history, forcing the user to recognize conceptual ...
Artists augmented by agents (invited speech)
Computers can be very helpful to us by performing tasks on our behalf. For example, they are very good at performing calculations, storing information and producing visualisations of objects that do not yet exist as a made artifact. Increasingly, ...
Adaptation in automated user-interface design
Design problems involve issues of stylistic preference and flexible standards of success; human designers often proceed by intuition and are unaware of following any strict rule-based procedures. These features make design tasks especially difficult to ...
A task-based architecture for application-aware adjuncts
Users of complex applications need advice, assistance, and feedback while they work. We are experimenting with “adjunct” user agents that are aware of the history of interaction surrounding the accomplishment of a task. This paper describes an ...
Improving human computer interaction in a classroom environment using computer vision
In this paper we discuss our use of multi-modal input to improve human computer interaction. Specifically we look at the methods used in the Intelligent Classroom to combine multiple input modes, and examine in particular the visual input modes. The ...
Adaptive medical information delivery combining user, task and situation models
Medical information delivery for users with different levels of expertise will be required for the manned mission to Mars due to limited potential for communication with Earth. The Mars Medical Assistant (MMA) uses a combination of user, situation, and ...
Jabberwocky: you don't have to be a rocket scientist to change slides for a hydrogen combustion lecture
In designing Jabberwocky—a speech-based interface to Microsoft PowerPoint—we have tried to go beyond simple commands like “Next slide, please” and make a tool that aids speakers as they present and even learns as they rehearse their presentations. ...
Mining navigation history for recommendation
Although a user's navigation history contains a lot of hidden information about the relationship between web pages and between users, this information is usually not exploited. The information hidden in the history can be an invaluable source of ...

R2D2 in a softball: the portable satellite assistant
The Portable Satellite Assistant (PSA) is a softball-sized flying robot designed to operate autonomously onboard manned and unmanned spacecraft in pressurized micro-gravity environments. In this paper we provide an overview of some of the design ...
Learning users' interests by unobtrusively observing their normal behavior
For intelligent interfaces attempting to learn a user's interests, the cost of obtaining labeled training instances is prohibitive because the user must directly label each training instance, and few users are willing to do so. We present an approach ...
Using annotated video as an information retrieval interface
The ability to deliver appropriate information to learners at the most appropriate time is an essential component of good instruction. In the best learning environments, this information is received in the context of the performance of the skills that ...
VITE: a visual interface supporting the direct manipulation of structured data using two-way mappings
Information processed by computers is frequently stored and organized for the computer's, rather than for the user's, convenience. For example, information stored in a database is normalized and indexed so computers can efficiently access, process, and ...
Creating an empirical basis for adaptation decisions
How can an adaptive intelligent interface decide what particular action to perform in a given situation, as a function of perceived properties of the user and the situation? Ideally, such decisions should be made on the basis of an empirically derived ...
Mapping communicative goals into conceptual tasks to generate graphics in discourse
We address the problem of realizing communicative plans in graphics. Our approach calls for mapping communicative goals to conceptual tasks and then using task-based graphic design for selecting graphical techniques. In this paper, we present the ...
