چکیده

Overview This design project addresses the inherent ambiguities of text chat interfaces concerning which messages relate to which. Due to their linear nature, the relationship between two messages is not always obvious. A prototype of an application has been developed that allows users to structure their conversations in a mindmap or tree layout. Its use of space and color is designed to make it easier for users to follow and remember discussions. The unclear relationship between messages in linear chat environments is a widely studied problem. Because of the quasi-synchronous nature of text chat, users often talk about several things at once. The following screenshot of an Internet Relay Chat (IRC) session about the Apache webserver illustrates the confusion that can arise when many users talk at once.

Layout Analysis for Camera-Based Whiteboard Notes

A domain where, even in the era of electronic document processing, handwriting is still widely used is note-taking on a whiteboard. Such documents are either captured by a pen-tracking device or – which is much more challenging – by a camera. In both cases the layout analysis of realistic whiteboard notes is an open research problem. In this paper we propose a camera-based three-stage approach ...

A truly human interface: interacting face-to-face with someone whose words are determined by a computer program

We use speech shadowing to create situations wherein people converse in person with a human whose words are determined by a conversational agent computer program. Speech shadowing involves a person (the shadower) repeating vocal stimuli originating from a separate communication source in real-time. Humans shadowing for conversational agent sources (e.g., chat bots) become hybrid agents ("echobo...
