Iteratively refining and critiquing sketches are crucial steps to developing effective designs. We introduce Scones, a mixed-initiative, machine-learning-driven system that enables users to iteratively author sketches from text…
Understanding the interactions of agents trained with deep reinforcement learning is crucial for deploying agents in games or the real world. In the former, unreasonable actions confuse players. In the latter, that effect is even more…
In the field of MLLM-based GUI agents, compared to smartphones, the PC scenario not only features a more complex interactive environment, but also involves more intricate intra- and inter-app workflows. To address these issues, we propose a…
AI agents are being developed to support high stakes decision-making processes from driving cars to prescribing drugs, making it increasingly important for human users to understand their behavior. Policy summarization methods aim to convey…
Reinforcement Learning AI commonly uses reward/penalty signals that are objective and explicit in an environment -- e.g. game score, completion time, etc. -- in order to learn the optimal strategy for task performance. However, Human-AI…
The automation of functional testing in software has allowed developers to continuously check for negative impacts on functionality throughout the iterative phases of development. This is not the case for User eXperience (UX), which has…
The Controllable Image Captioning Agent (CapAgent) is an innovative system designed to bridge the gap between user simplicity and professional-level outputs in image captioning tasks. CapAgent automatically transforms user-provided simple…
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed as agents, expected to decompose goals, invoke tools, and verify results in dynamic environments. Realizing these capabilities requires access to agentic data-structured interaction…
Adapting an interface requires taking into account both the positive and negative effects that changes may have on the user. A carelessly picked adaptation may impose high costs to the user -- for example, due to surprise or relearning…
The rise of personal assistant agents, e.g., OpenClaw, highlights the growing potential of large language models to support users across everyday life and work. A core challenge in these settings is proactive assistance, since users often…
Personalized AI agents are becoming central to modern information retrieval, yet most evaluation methodologies remain static, relying on fixed benchmarks and one-off metrics that fail to reflect how users' needs evolve over time. These…
The paper deals with the design of an agent which modifies and enhances the various alert systems in the smartphones. The actions of the agent includes sorting the notifications abiding to human thinking, helping the user to have a safe…
User preference learning is generally a hard problem. Individual preferences are typically unknown even to users themselves, while the space of choices is infinite. Here we study user preference learning from information-theoretic…
Sketching is a natural and effective visual communication medium commonly used in creative processes. Recent developments in deep-learning models drastically improved machines' ability in understanding and generating visual content. An…
Current approaches to the annotation process focus on annotation schemas, languages for annotation, or are very application driven. In this paper it is proposed that a more flexible architecture for annotation requires a knowledge component…
Recent advances have enabled general computer-use agents that interpret screens and execute grounded actions from human instructions, yet they still struggle to generalize to unseen and evolving interfaces. While improving agent capability…
This paper presents Face2Feel, a novel user interface (UI) model that dynamically adapts to user emotions and preferences captured through computer vision. This adaptive UI framework addresses the limitations of traditional static…
As more and more AI agents are used in practice, it is time to think about how to make these agents fully autonomous so that they can learn by themselves in a self-motivated and self-supervised manner rather than being retrained…
With the rapid development of the internet and the explosion of information, providing users with accurate personalized recommendations has become an important research topic. This paper designs and analyzes a personalized recommendation…
Preparing high-quality instructional materials remains a labor-intensive process that often requires extensive coordination among teaching faculty, instructional designers, and teaching assistants. In this work, we present Instructional…
