The Friday Afternoon Project: A Two-Hour VoodooIO Prototyping Exercise

VoodooIO is a new architecture for physical user interfaces, providing interface devices that can be flexibly arranged on an interactive substrate. The architecture supports rapid assembly of physical interfaces and dynamic rearrangement of devices. In this paper we provide an account of a case study in which VoodooIO was used to rapidly build and explore a physical interface to an existing app...

Afternoon Break

Friday / Saturday

Two-sample tests for multivariate and especially for non-Euclidean data are not fully explored. This paper presents a novel test based on a similarity graph constructed on the pooled observations from the two samples. It can be applied to multivariate data and non-Euclidean data as long as a dissimilarity measure on the sample space can be defined, which can usually be provided by domain expert...
