The task of the session-based recommendation is to predict the next interaction of the user based on the anonymized user's behavior pattern. And personalized version of this system is a promising research field due to its availability to…
A click on an item is arguably the most widely used feature in recommender systems. However, a click is one out of 174 events a browser can trigger. This paper presents a framework to effectively collect and store data from event streams. A…
We propose Secure Pick Up (SPU), a convenient, lightweight, in-device, non-intrusive and automatic-learning system for smartphone user authentication. Operating in the background, our system implicitly observes users' phone pick-up…
A wide range of analysis and testing techniques targeting modern web apps rely on the automated exploration of their state space by firing events that mimic user interactions. However, finding out which elements are actionable in web apps…
Much of the energy consumption in buildings is due to HVAC systems, which has motivated several recent studies on making these systems more energy- efficient. Occupancy and activity are two important aspects, which need to be correctly…
With the rapid growth in smartphone usage, more organizations begin to focus on providing better services for mobile users. User identification can help these organizations to identify their customers and then cater services that have been…
We introduce models for saliency prediction for mobile user interfaces. A mobile interface may include elements like buttons, text, etc. in addition to natural images which enable performing a variety of tasks. Saliency in natural images is…
In humans and in foveated animals visual acuity is highly concentrated at the center of gaze, so that choosing where to look next is an important example of online, rapid decision making. Computational neuroscientists have developed…
The sequential recommendation task aims to predict the item that user is interested in according to his/her historical action sequence. However, inevitable random action, i.e. user randomly accesses an item among multiple candidates or…
For graphical user interface (UI) design, it is important to understand what attracts visual attention. While previous work on saliency has focused on desktop and web-based UIs, mobile app UIs differ from these in several respects. We…
An important metric of users' satisfaction and engagement within on-line streaming services is the user session length, i.e. the amount of time they spend on a service continuously without interruption. Being able to predict this value…
Modern mobile devices are able to provide context-aware and personalized services to the users, by leveraging on their sensing capabilities to infer the activity and situation in which a person is currently involved. Current solutions for…
A success factor for modern companies in the age of Digital Marketing is to understand how customers think and behave based on their online shopping patterns. While the conventional method of gathering consumer insights through…
Fast and accurate crystal structure prediction (CSP) algorithms and web servers are highly desirable for exploring and discovering new materials out of the infinite design space. However, currently, the computationally expensive first…
With the widespread adoption of smartphones, ensuring pedestrian safety on roads has become a critical concern due to smartphone distraction. This paper proposes a novel and real-time assistance system called UWB-assisted Safe Walk (UASW)…
We use a deep learning based approach to predict whether a selected element in a mobile UI screenshot will be perceived by users as tappable, based on pixels only instead of view hierarchies required by previous work. To help designers…
Cybercriminals have leveraged the popularity of a large user base available on Online Social Networks to spread spam campaigns by propagating phishing URLs, attaching malicious contents, etc. However, another kind of spam attacks using…
Social activities play an important role in people's daily life since they interact. For recommendations based on social activities, it is vital to have not only the activity information but also individuals' social relations. Thanks to the…
Although the use of pay-per-click mechanisms stimulates the prosperity of the mobile advertisement network, fraudulent ad clicks result in huge financial losses for advertisers. Extensive studies identify click fraud according to…
Quantification of human attention is key to several tasks in mobile human-computer interaction (HCI), such as predicting user interruptibility, estimating noticeability of user interface content, or measuring user engagement. Previous works…
