چکیده

Users of today’s desktop interface often suffer from interruption overload. Our research seeks to develop an attention manager that mitigates the disruptive effects of interruptions by identifying moments of low mental workload in a user’s task sequence. To develop such a system, however, we need effective mechanisms to identify user tasks in real-time. In this paper, we show how eye gaze patterns may be used to identify user tasks. We also show that gaze patterns can indicate usability issues of an interface as well as the mental workload that the interface induces on a user. Our results can help inform the design of an attention manager and may lead to new methods to evaluate user interfaces.

Te, Te, Hi, Hi: Eye Gaze Sequence Analysis for Informing User-Adaptive Information Visualizations

Information visualization systems have traditionally followed a one-size-fits-all paradigm with respect to their users, i.e., their design is seldom personalized to the specific characteristics of users (e.g. perceptual abilities) or their tasks (e.g. task difficulty). In view of creating information visualization systems that can adapt to each individual user and task, this paper provides an a...

Predicting User Attention using Eye Gaze in Conversational Interfaces

In a conversational system, determining the user’s focus of attention is crucial to the success of the system. Motivated by previous psycholinguistic findings, we are currently examining how eye gaze contributes to automated identification of user attention during conversation. In particular, we are developing techniques that can predict an objects’ activation in a given time frame based on use...

GazeSpace: eye gaze controlled content spaces

In this paper, we introduce GazeSpace, a novel system utilizing eye gaze to browse content spaces. While most existing eye gaze systems are designed for medical contexts, GazeSpace is aimed at able-bodied audiences. As this target group has much higher expectations for quality of interaction and general usability, GazeSpace integrates a contextual user interface, and rich continuous feedback to...
