This paper presents recent results of the application of the task-based Browser Evaluation Test (BET) to meeting browsers, that is, interfaces to multimodal databases of meeting recordings. The tasks were defined by browser-neutral BET observers. Two group ...
The routine use of Computer-Assisted Surgery (CAS) in a wide range of surgical procedures and specialties is being hindered by the lack of suitable user interface for surgical environments. While many computer techniques and software exist to assist surgeo ...
Mobile service robots are going to play an increasing role in the society of humans. Voice-enabled interaction with service robots becomes very important, if such robots are to be deployed in real-world environments and accepted by the vast majority of pot ...
The purpose of evaluation procedures is to achieve both qualitative and quantitative statements on haptic rendering realism and performance. Since a haptic interface provides an interaction between a user and a virtual environment, fidelity of a haptic int ...
The main task of a service robot with a voice-enabled communication interface is to engage a user in dialogue providing an access to the services it is designed for. In managing such interaction, inferring the user goal (intention) from the request for a s ...
User interaction with online geospatial systems is an inter-disciplinary research field that combines the two disciplines Human Computer Interaction (HCI) and geographic information sciences. In recent years online geospatial systems have been created for ...
The objective of this document is to present a rapid dialogue prototyping methodology developed at the Artificial Intelligent Laboratory - Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne. Concretely, the rapid dialogue prototyping methodology is decomposed into 5 ...
This paper exposes the Rapid Dialogue Prototyping Methodology [1, 2, 3], a methodology allowing the easy and automatic derivation of an ad hoc dialogue management system from a specific task description. The goal of the produced manager is to provide the u ...
As robots start pervading human environments, the need for new interfaces that would simplify human-robot interaction has become more pressing. Robot Programming by Demonstration (RbD) develops intuitive ways of programming robots, taking inspiration in st ...
This paper is about the automated production of dialogue models. The goal is to propose and validate a methodology that allows the production of finalized dialogue models (i.e. dialogue models specific for given applications) in a few hours. The solution w ...
