Design and evaluation issues for user-centric online product search
Graph Chatbot
Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Critiquing techniques provide an easy way for users to feedback their preferences over one or several attributes of the products in a conversational recommender system. While unit critiques only allow users to critique one attribute of the products each ti ...
We present a system for real-time configuration of multimodal interfaces to Virtual Environments (VE). The flexibility of our tool is supported by a semantics-based representation of VEs. Semantic descriptors are used to define interaction devices and virt ...
People frequently use the world-wide web to find their most preferred item among a large range of options. We call this task preference-based search. The most common tool for preference-based search on the WWW today obtains users' preferences by asking the ...
We describe a user study evaluating two critiquing-based recommender agents based on three criteria: decision accuracy, decision effort, and user confidence. Results show that user-motivated critiques were more frequently applied and the example critiquing ...

We consider interactive tools that help users search for their most preferred item in a large collection of options. In particular, we examine example-critiquing, a technique for enabling users to incrementally construct preference models by critiquing exa ...
One crucial task for e-commerce systems is to help buyers find products that not only satisfy their preferences but also reduce their search effort. Usually the amount of available products is far beyond the upper limit that any individual could process by ...

Based on our recent work on the development of a trust model for recommender agents and a qualitative survey, we explore the potential of building users' trust with explanation interfaces. We present the major results from the survey, which provided a road ...
We present the results of an evaluation study in the framework of user interfaces for teleoperation of vehicles. We developed a virtual cockpit with haptic feedback provided by a Haptic Workstation™. Four alternative teleoperation interfaces were implement ...
Ultrasound imaging allows the evaluation of the degree of emergency of a patient. However, in several occasions a well trained sonographer is unavailable to perform such echography. To cope with this issue, the OTELO project aims to develop a fully integra ...

Currently many researches in the field of multimodal interfaces (input, output) have been made in order to be able to achieve complex tasks merely, naturally, and quickly. Expert interfaces should be considering the risks resulting from an ordered action, ...
