User interaction widgets for interactive theorem proving
… systems, proof authoring is conducted by the user as a goal directed proof search, using a script for storing textual commands for the system. In the tradition of LCF, the proof language of Matita is procedural and relies on tactic and tacticals to proceed toward proof completion. The …

Model-based user interaction for accessing electronic news
Natural language interfaces support human-machine interactions in a way that is natural and that does not require elaborate user training. The two main problems in human-computer dialog are resolution of ambiguity and incompleteness. A model-based architecture is introduced in this thesis that …

A user interaction language for accessing multimedia news documents
… TV and Radio do not provide any control to the user in selecting a particular news, while the News Paper is not dynamic like TV or Radio. Internet has dynamism, good user control, and interactivity, but the available Internet browsers are not very user friendly in personalizing the news. To …

Toward Flexible User Interaction in Content-Based Multimedia Data Retrieval
… retrieval and management. First, we discuss user interface and visualization for digital image management. Two innovative systems are proposed. 3D MARS is immersive 3D display for image visualization and search systems. The user browses and searches images in 3D virtual reality environment. …

Learning common sense knowledge from user interaction and principal component analysis
… should contain. The inferred knowledge, which a user survey shows is often correct, is used as part of a feedback loop that shows contributors what the system is learning and guides them to contribute useful new knowledge.

Immersive real-time multi-user interaction with computer simulated pedestrians during emergencies
… rather than qualitatively correct and direct interaction with simulated agents is either not possible or limited to one-to-one interaction. An Immersive Real-time Interactive Simulation (IRIS) system is proposed to link a validated pedestrian behaviour computer model with an interactive …

Leveraging user interaction to improve search experience with difficult and exploratory queries
… search systems provide no assistance to the users when they cannot formulate an effective keyword query and receive the search results of poor quality. In some cases, the users may intentionally formulate broad or exploratory queries (for example, when they want to explore a particular topic …

A foundation for translating user interaction designs into OSF/Motif-based software
The user interface development process occurs in a behavioral domain and in a constructional domain. The development process in the behavioral domain focuses on the "look and feel" of the user interface and its behavior in response to user actions. The development process in the constructional …

Analysis of the impact of user interaction on prototyping productivity during product development
User involvement has been widely supported by both researchers and management as a critical factor in new product design (Cooper and Kleinshmidt, 1990; Foxall and Johnston 1987; Kanter, 1988; Parkinson, 1982; Rothwell et al., 1974; von Hippel, 1988). However, because of the time consuming and …

IntuiSec : a framework for intuitive user interaction with security in the smart home
… presents IntuiSec, a framework for intuitive user interaction with Smart Home security. The design approach of IntuiSec is to introduce a layer of indirection between user-level intent and the system-level security infrastructure. This layer is implemented by a collection of distributed …

A framework for understanding user interaction with content-based image retrieval: model, interface and users
User interaction is essential to the communication between users and content-based image retrieval (CBIR) systems. User interaction covers three key elements: an interaction model, an interactive interface and users. The three key elements combine to enable effective interaction to happen. Many …

Sound strand design : designing mechanical joints to facilitate user interaction within a physical representation of digital music
This project involved the mechanical design of a modular musical instrument, named the "Sound Strand." Intended to be attached end-to-end one onto another in order to produce a string of music, each module was constructed to be easily maneuverable by hand and compactly contained within a 4"x2"x2" …

Automated interpretation of digital images of hydrographic charts.
… proximity of the segments. The system solicits user interaction when ambiguities arise. IThe creation of an intelligent knowledge based system (IKBS) implemented in the form of a backward chained production rule based system, which cooperates with the SAFE system, is described. The 1KBS attempts …
