Activity Theory: Implications for Human-Computer Interaction
Recently interest has grown in applying activity theory, the leading theoretical approach in Russian psychology, to issues of human-computer interaction. This chapter analyzes why experts in the field are looking for an alternative to the currently dominant cognitive approach. The basic principles of activity theory are presented and their implications for human-computer interaction are discuss...
متن کاملContext-Aware Multimodal Human-Computer Interaction
In the recent years multimodal interfaces have acquired an important role in human computer interaction applications. Humans use multimodality to reduce ambiguity and incompleteness of information. Seemingly they are able to switch easily from one modality to the other and fuse the information from different multimodal sources. The goal of our research was to develop a crisis based human like m...
متن کاملMachine Learning and Citizen Science: Opportunities and Challenges of Human-Computer Interaction
Background and Aim: In processing large data, scientists have to perform the tedious task of analyzing hefty bulk of data. Machine learning techniques are a potential solution to this problem. In citizen science, human and artificial intelligence may be unified to facilitate this effort. Considering the ambiguities in machine performance and management of user-generated data, this paper aims to...
متن کاملHuman Computer Interaction with a PIM Application: Merging Activity, Location and Social Setting into Context
Personal Information Managers exploit the ubiquitous paradigm in mobile computing technology to integrate services and programs for business and leisure. Recognizing that every situation is constituted by information and events, this context will vary depending on the situation users are in, and the tasks they are about to commit. The value of context as a source of information is highly recogn...
متن کاملHuman Computer Interaction Using Vision-Based Hand Gesture Recognition
With the rapid emergence of 3D applications and virtual environments in computer systems; the need for a new type of interaction device arises. This is because the traditional devices such as mouse, keyboard, and joystick become inefficient and cumbersome within these virtual environments. In other words, evolution of user interfaces shapes the change in the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). In...
