Aurélien Nioche joins the group
Aurélien Nioche joins us as a postdoctoral researcher. After completing a PhD in cognitive science at Sorbonne University (Paris, France), his current work aims to understand how collaboration between an artificial intelligence (AI) and human can be improved if AI is making inferences on user’s cognitives features while interacting with it.
Course on Computational Interaction with Bayesian Methods accepted to CHI 2019 in Glasgow
Our course with Per Ola Kristensson (Cambridge), Nikola Banovic (Michigan), and John Williamson (Glasgow) was accepted to CHI 2019 in Glasgow. It’s a 4 unit course. Abstract below: This course introduces computational methods in human– computer interaction. Computational interaction methods use computational thinking — abstraction, automation, and analysis — to explain and enhance interaction. This…
