چکیده

We introduce the idea of partial behaviours in user interfaces. A partial behaviour can beguile users, and may be a cause of interaction problems — however, it is possible to identify and remove them early in the design process, making them a useful concept for interaction design. A characterisation of partial behaviours is presented, in terms of a matrix algebra model of interactive systems. We use the model to show some real interfaces have undesirable and apparently unnecessary partial behaviours, and we discuss how choices made when modelling affect our notion of partiality. We also briefly describe a design tool that provides automatic support for partial behaviour analysis.

Hyper-Rational Choice and Economic Behaviour

In this paper, with help of the concept of hyper-rationality, we model the interaction between two investment companies by an important game as trickery game that has special equilibrium which called hyper-equilibrium. In trickery game, one company can choose cooperation with another company until the last moment and finally changes his action to non-cooperation which incur more loss to an oppo...

Believable Visual Feedback in Motor Learning Using Occlusion-based Clipping in Video Mapping

Gait rehabilitation systems provide patients with guidance and feedback that assist them to better perform the rehabilitation tasks. Real-time feedback can guide users to correct their movements. Research has shown that the quality of feedback is crucial to enhance motor learning in physical rehabilitation. Common feedback systems based on virtual reality present interactive feedback in a monit...

Interactive comment on “ Dynamics of global atmospheric CO 2 concentration from 1850 to 2010 : a linear approximation ” by W . Wang and R . Nemani

Overview: This paper by Wang and Nemani (denoted W&N) discusses: (i) linear representation of carbon cycle behaviour (in a superficial manner), (ii) gives an illustrative model from which misleading generalisations are drawn (iii) discusses the influence of temperature on CO2 fluxes, using an analysis based on applying flawed logic to a model that exhibits a gross failure to agree with the obse...

PUMA PROGRAMMABLE USER MODELLING APPLICATIONS The principle of rationality and models of highly interactive systems

One approach to reasoning about interactive behaviour is to assume that users of computer systems are rational, and that the behaviour of an interactive system results from the rational behaviour of the users together with the implemented behaviour of the devices that make up the total system. These assumptions can be expressed as a coherent set of principles. This approach enables an analyst t...

A New Statistical Model for Evaluation Interactive Question Answering Systems Using Regression

The development of computer systems and extensive use of information technology in the everyday life of people have just made it more and more important for them to make quick access to information that has received great importance. Increasing the volume of information makes it difficult to manage or control. Thus, some instruments need to be provided to use this information. The QA system is ...
