Exploring the tremendous amount of data efficiently to make a decision, similar to answering a complicated question, is challenging with many real-world application scenarios. In this context, automatic summarization has substantial…
GUI design is an integral part of software development. The process of designing a mobile application typically starts with the ideation and inspiration search from existing designs. However, existing information-retrieval based, and…
Many user studies of home automation, as the most familiar representative of the Internet of Things, have shown the difficulty of developing technology that users understand and like. It helps to state requirements as largely-independent…
Infographic is a type of information visualization that uses graphic design to enhance human ability to identify patterns and trends. It is popularly used to support spread of information. Yet, there are few studies that investigate how…
Scientific diagrams are essential for communicating complex methodologies in academic papers. A natural way for researchers to specify such diagrams is through rough sketches, where text labels, connectors, and spatial arrangements express…
Different users find different images generated for the same prompt desirable. This gives rise to personalized image generation which involves creating images aligned with an individual's visual preference. Current generative models are,…
Traditionally, a communication waveform is designed by experts based on communication theory and their experiences on a case-by-case basis, which is usually laborious and time-consuming. In this paper, we investigate the waveform design…
Semi-autonomous vehicles are increasingly serving critical functions in various settings from mining to logistics to defence. A key characteristic of such systems is the presence of the human (drivers) in the control loop. To ensure safety,…
Collaborative filtering (CF) based recommender systems are typically trained based on personal interaction data (e.g., clicks and purchases) that could be naturally represented as ego graphs. However, most existing recommendation methods…
Despite impressive recent advances in text-to-image diffusion models, obtaining high-quality images often requires prompt engineering by humans who have developed expertise in using them. In this work, we present NeuroPrompts, an adaptive…
Accurate recommendation and reliable explanation are two key issues for modern recommender systems. However, most recommendation benchmarks only concern the prediction of user-item ratings while omitting the underlying causes behind the…
This study introduces an adaptive user interface generation technology, emphasizing the role of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) in optimizing user experience. By focusing on enhancing the interaction between users and intelligent systems,…
Exploratory search starts with ill-defined goals and involves browsing, learning, and formulating new targets for search. To fluidly support such dynamic search behaviours, we focus on devising interactive visual facets (IVF), visualising…
The complexity of exploratory data analysis poses significant challenges for collaboration and effective communication of analytic workflows. Automated methods can alleviate these challenges by summarizing workflows into more interpretable…
Humans can intuitively decompose an image into a sequence of strokes to create a painting, yet existing methods for generating drawing processes are limited to specific data types and often rely on expensive human-annotated datasets. We…
Autonomous experimentation systems have been used to greatly advance the integrated computational materials engineering (ICME) paradigm. This paper outlines a framework that enables the design and selection of data collection workflows for…
This paper proposes a visual analytics framework that addresses the complex user interactions required through a command-line interface to run analyses in distributed data analysis systems. The visual analytics framework facilitates the…
Creative workflows for generating graphical documents involve complex inter-related tasks, such as aligning elements, choosing appropriate fonts, or employing aesthetically harmonious colors. In this work, we attempt at building a holistic…
Recently there has been increasing interest in developing and deploying deep graph learning algorithms for many tasks, such as fraud detection and recommender systems. Albeit, there is a limited number of publicly available graph-structured…
We present an assistive system for clipart design by providing visual scaffolds from the unseen viewpoints. Inspired by the artists' creation process, our system constructs the visual scaffold by first synthesizing the reference 3D shape of…
