Cultural Communication Idiosyncrasies in Human-Computer Interaction

چکیده
In this work, we investigate whether the cultural idiosyncrasies found in humanhuman interaction may be transferred to human-computer interaction. With the aim of designing a culture-sensitive dialogue system, we designed a user study creating a dialogue in a domain that has the potential capacity to reveal cultural differences. The dialogue contains different options for the system output according to cultural differences. We conducted a survey among Germans and Japanese to investigate whether the supposed differences may be applied in human-computer interaction. Our results show that there are indeed differences, but not all results are consistent with the cultural models.

Our research is aimed at a systematic investigation of phenomena in the nexus of culture, technology and learning. The basic premise of our research is that social affordances of technologies might vary along cultural dimensions. In this paper we present a brief overview of the concept of culture. We then discuss empirical findings demonstrating cultural effects on social behavior, communicatio...

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...

I present an extension of Kansei mediated communication in the field of cultural computing. I propose to do so by implementing Cultural Computing concept and enriching it with Kansei Mediated Interaction. I present some inspiration for my approach in terms of culture and then discuss them. I relate my work to the Eastern and to the Western world, i.e. I use cultural examples from Japan and Engl...
