Direct Interruptability Prediction and Scenario-based Evaluation of Wearable Devices: Towards Reliable Interruptability Predictions
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we introduce the approach of direct interruptability inference from accelerometer and audio data and show that it provides highly accurate and robust predictions. Furthermore, we argue that scenarios are central for evaluating the performance of interruptability predicting devices and prove it on our setup. We also demonstrate that scenarios provide the foundation for avoiding misleading results, assessing the results’ generalizability, and provide the basis for a stratified scenario-based learning model, which greatly speedsup the training of such devices.

A scenario-based approach for direct interruptability prediction on wearable devices
Purpose – People are subjected to a multitude of interruptions. In order to manage these interruptions it is imperative to predict a person’s interruptability – his/her current readiness or inclination to be interrupted. This paper aims to introduce the approach of direct interruptability inference from sensor streams (accelerometer and audio data) in a ubiquitous computing setup and to show th...
متن کاملInterruptability Prediction Using Motion Detection
People are subjected to a multitude of interruptions. This paper introduces an approach to predict a person’s presence and interruptability in an office-like environment. To determine these two states we record data as audio, motion detection, and the time of the day representing a person’s context. We show that motion detection data outperforms audio data both in presence and interruptability ...
متن کاملEstimating User Interruptability using Contextual Parameters and Machine-Learning Algorithms
As devices, computer applications, and services have become increasingly ubiquitous in diverse and ever-changing environments, a higher demand has been put on the user to manage and use them efficiently. To facilitate these tasks, we can introduce awareness of some areas of user context into these devices and let them do more of the work for us. However, at this time, no good understanding of w...
متن کاملContext-Aware Notification for Wearable Computing
In this paper we propose to use context information obtained from body–worn sensors to mediate notifications for a wearable computer. In particular we introduce a model which uses two axes, namely personal and social interruptability of the user in order to decide both whether or not to notify the user and to decide which notification modality to use. Rather than to model and recognize the comp...
متن کاملTowards a Physiological Model of User Interruptability
User interruptability has become an important topic of study in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). However, automatically determining the availability of users is still problematic. In this paper, we present a preliminary study of the use of physiological measurements for predicting user interruptability status. We measured Heart Rate Variability (HRV) and Electromyogram (EMG) signals whilst use...
