A Survey on Measuring Cognitive Workload in Human-Computer Interaction

Human-Computer Interaction and Human Mental Workload: Assessing Cognitive Engagement in the World Wide Web

Assessing the cognitive engagement of a user while seeking and consuming information over the World Wide Web is a key challenge for studying the quality of interactions. Indicators of cognitive engagement are useful for enhancing usability of interfaces, designing adaptable systems but also for analysing user behaviour and performance. For this purpose, we aim to adopt the multifaceted concept ...

Pupil Dilation as an Indicator of Cognitive Workload in Human-Computer Interaction

Pupil dilation is known to quickly respond to changes in the brightness in the visual field and a person's cognitive workload while performing a visual task. Pupil dilation is rarely analyzed in usability studies although it can be measured by most video-based eye-tracking systems and yields highly relevant workload information. This is mainly due to two problems: First, the variety of factors ...

Multimodal Human Computer Interaction: A Survey

In this paper, we review the major approaches to multimodal human–computer interaction, giving an overview of the field from a computer vision perspective. In particular, we focus on body, gesture, gaze, and affective interaction (facial expression recognition and emotion in audio). We discuss user and task modeling, and multimodal fusion, highlighting challenges, open issues, and emerging appl...

Human-Computer Intelligent Interaction: A Survey

Human-computer interaction (HCI) is one of the foremost challenges of our society. New paradigms for interacting with computers are being developed which will define the 21st century and enable the world to communicate and interact effortlessly and intuitively. In this short survey, we explain the major research clusters comprising the state of the art, and indicate promising future research di...
