User interface (UI) personalization can improve usability and user experience. However, current systems offer limited opportunities for customization, and third-party solutions often require significant effort and technical skills beyond…
The muti-modal or multi-sensorial perception of nature is presented in this article as part of research devoted to inclusive tools developed in the framework of User Centered Design. This proposal shows that it is possible to work in a…
The growing complexity and scale of visual model pre-training have made developing and deploying multi-task computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems increasingly challenging and resource-intensive. Furthermore, the medical imaging community…
Nowadays, advanced security mechanisms exist to protect data, systems, and networks. Most of these mechanisms are effective, and security experts can handle them to achieve a sufficient level of security for any given system. However, most…
People form impressions of their dialogue partners, be they other people or machines, based on cues drawn from their communicative style. Recent work has suggested that the gulf between people's expectations and the reality of CUI…
Computer Aided Design systems provide tools for building and manipulating models of solid objects. Some also provide access to programming languages so that parametrised designs can be expressed. There is a sharp distinction, therefore,…
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the major technological advancements of this century, bearing incredible potential for users through AI-powered applications and tools in numerous domains. Being often black-box (i.e., its…
This paper presents a comprehensive communication theoretic model for the physical layer of a cell-free user-centric network, formed by user equipments (UEs), radio units (RUs), and decentralized units (DUs), uniformly spatially distributed…
Existing Tool-Integrated Reasoning (TIR) models have effectively extended the question-answering capabilities of LLMs by incorporating external tools. However, real-world scenarios present numerous open-ended problems where fixed tools…
This work contributes to a compositional theory of "co-design" that allows to optimally design a robotic platform. In this framework, the user describes each subsystem as a monotone relation between "functionality" provided and "resources"…
User Interface (UI) design is an creative process that involves considerable reiteration and rework. Designers go through multiple iterations of different prototyping fidelities to create a UI design. In this research, we propose to modify…
Large Language Models (LLMs) offer vast potential for creative ideation; however, their standard interaction paradigm often produces unstructured textual outputs that lead users to prematurely converge on sub-optimal ideas-a phenomenon…
Large language model (LLM)-based computer use agents execute user commands by interacting with available UI elements, but little is known about how users want to interact with these agents or what design factors matter for their user…
Coding forms a key part of computer science education in universities. As part of this education, Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) are essential tools for coding. However, it is currently unknown how the design of an IDE's…
The Object-Centric Event Data (OCED) is a novel meta-model aimed at providing a common ground for process data records centered around events and objects. One of its objectives is to foster interoperability and process information exchange.…
Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) is a field of research and practice that works with people who have a communication disability. One form AAC can take is a high-tech tool, such as a software-based communication system. Like…
Semantic communication has shown outstanding performance in preserving the overall source information in wireless transmission. For semantically rich content such as images, human users are often interested in specific regions depending on…
Divergent thinking activities, like research and ideation, are key drivers of innovation in UI/UX design. Existing research has explored AI's role in automating design tasks, but leaves a critical gap in understanding how AI specifically…
Over the past three decades, considerable effort has been devoted to the study of software architecture. A major portion of this effort has focused on the originally proposed view of four "C"s---components, connectors, configurations, and…
The design of a building requires an architect to balance a wide range of constraints: aesthetic, geometric, usability, lighting, safety, etc. At the same time, there are often a multiplicity of diverse designs that can meet these…
