Humans are talented with the ability to perform diverse interactions in the teaching process. However, when humans want to teach AI, existing interactive systems only allow humans to perform repetitive labeling, causing an unsatisfactory…
Research on Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) began in the 1970s and has increased in volume and diversified significantly since then. Today BCI is widely used for applications like assistive devices for physically challenged users, mental…
In a world where technology is increasingly embedded in our everyday experiences, systems that sense and respond to human emotions are elevating digital interaction. At the intersection of artificial intelligence and human-computer…
The underlying physiological mechanisms of generating conscious states are still unknown. To make progress on the problem of consciousness, we will need to experimentally design a system that evolves in a similar way our brains do. Recent…
Intuition, metacognition, and subjective uncertainty interact in complex ways to shape the creative design process. Design intuition, a designer's innate ability to generate creative ideas and solutions based on implicit knowledge and…
Technical systems have evolved over time into large and complex Interwoven Systems consisting of several to a huge number of (possibly heterogeneous) subsystems that have interdependencies. The resultant mutual influences among subsystems…
An adaptive guidance system that supports equipment operators requires a comprehensive model, which involves a variety of user behaviors that considers different skill and knowledge levels, as well as rapid-changing task situations. In the…
As the proliferation of technology dramatically infiltrates all aspects of modern life, in many ways the world is becoming so dynamic and complex that technological capabilities are overwhelming human capabilities to optimally interact with…
Web is often used for finding information and with a learning intention. In this thesis, we propose a study to investigate the process of learning online across varying cognitive learning levels using crowd-sourced participants. Our aim was…
Brain-computer interface (BCI) systems have potential as assistive technologies for individuals with severe motor impairments. Nevertheless, individuals must first participate in many training sessions to obtain adequate data for optimizing…
We argue that a key challenge in enabling usable and useful interactive task learning for intelligent agents is to facilitate effective Human-AI collaboration. We reflect on our past 5 years of efforts on designing, developing and studying…
In this study, importance of user inputs is studied in the context of personalizing human activity recognition models using incremental learning. Inertial sensor data from three body positions are used, and the classification is based on…
Researchers and experts are taking efforts in delivering an optimal user experience from a long time. Computer interfaces are being developed to keep user 'in the flow' as well as for making users more connected to the real world wile using…
Information access systems, such as search engines, recommender systems, and conversational assistants, have become integral to our daily lives as they help us satisfy our information needs. However, evaluating the effectiveness of these…
In-person instruction for professional development or other types of workplace training provides a social environment and immediate feedback mechanisms that typically ensure all participants are successful. Online, self-paced instruction…
Mental Imagery based Brain-Computer Interfaces (MI-BCI) enable their users to control an interface, e.g., a prosthesis, by performing mental imagery tasks only, such as imagining a right arm movement while their brain activity is measured…
The hypothesis that direct human intention can modulate the concurrent outcomes of a stochastic process has been under test for over 35 years, surrounded by inconclusive evidence and a great amount of ambiguity. An increased interest has…
With the great success in simulating many intelligent behaviors using computing devices, there has been an ongoing debate whether all conscious activities are computational processes. In this paper, the answer to this question is shown to…
'Automating the user away' has been designated as a dark pattern in literature for performing tasks without user consent or confirmation. However, limited studies have been reported on how users experience the sense of autonomy when digital…
AI design characteristics and human personality traits each impact the quality and outcomes of human-AI interactions. However, their relative and joint impacts are underexplored in imperfectly cooperative scenarios, where people and AI only…
