Invited talk I: What Users
Want
Daniel Weld, The University of Washington
Abstract:
Today's computer interfaces are one size fits
all. Users with little programming experience
have only limited opportunities to customize
their interface to their task and work habits
(e.g., adding buttons to a toolbar). Furthermore,
the overhead induced by generic interfaces
will be proportionately greater on small form-factor
PDAs, embedded applications and wearable devices.
Searching for a solution, researchers argue
that productivity can be greatly enhanced
if interfaces anticipated their users, adapted
to their preferences, and reacted to high-level
customization requests. But realizing these
benefits is tricky, because there is an inherent
tension between the dynamism implied by automatic
interface adaptation and the stability required
in order for the user to maintain an accurate
mental model, predict the computer's behavior,
and feel in control. In this talk, I discuss
several principles governing effective adaptation,
describe algorithms for data mining user action
traces, and suggest mechanisms for dynamically
transforming interfaces.

Tangible Bits: Designing
the Seamless Interface between People, Bits,
and Atoms
Hiroshi Ishii
Tangible
Media Group
MIT Media Laboratory
Abstract:
Where the sea meets the land, life has blossomed
into a myriad of unique forms in the turbulence
of water, sand, and wind. At another seashore
between the land of atoms and the sea of bits,
we are now facing the challenge of reconciling
our dual citizenships in the physical and
digital worlds. Windows to the digital world
are confined to flat square screens and pixels,
or "painted bits." Unfortunately, one can
not feel and confirm the virtual existence
of this digital information through one's
body. Tangible Bits, our vision of Human Computer
Interaction (HCI), seeks to realize seamless
interfaces between humans, digital information,
and the physical environment by giving physical
form to digital information, making bits directly
manipulable and perceptible. The goal is to
blur the boundary between our bodies and cyberspace
and to turn the architectural space into an
interface between the people, bits, and atoms.
In this talk, I will present a variety of
tangible user interfaces the Tangible Media
Group has designed and presented within the
CHI, SIGGRAPH, UIST, CSCW, IDSA, ICSID, ICC,
and Ars Electronica communities.
About Hiroshi Ishii:
Hiroshi Ishii is a tenured Associate Professor
of Media Arts and Sciences, at the MIT Media
Lab. His research focuses upon the design
of seamless interfaces between humans, digital
information, and the physical environment.
At the MIT Media Lab, he founded and directs
the Tangible Media Group pursuing a new
vision of Human Computer Interaction (HCI):
"Tangible Bits." His team seeks to change
the "painted bits" of GUIs to "tangible
bits" by giving physical form to digital
information. He also co-directs Things That
Think (TTT) Consortium at the MIT Media
Lab.
Ishii and his students have presented their
vision of "Tangible Bits" at a variety of
academic, industrial design, and artistic
venues (including ACM SIGCHI, ACM SIGGRAPH,
Industrial Design Society of America, and
Ars Electronica), emphasizing that the development
of tangible interfaces requires the rigor
of both scientific and artistic review.
A display of many of the group's projects
took place at the NTT InterCommunication
Center (ICC) in Tokyo in summer 2000. A
new, two-year-long exhibition "Get in Touch"
that features the Tangible Media group's
work opened at Ars Electronica Center (Linz,
Austria) in September 2001.
Prior to MIT, from 1988-1994, he led a
CSCW research group at the NTT Human Interface
Laboratories, where his team invented TeamWorkStation
and ClearBoard. In 1993 and 1994, he was
a visiting assistant professor at the University
of Toronto, Canada. He received B. E. degree
in electronic engineering, M. E. and Ph.
D. degrees in computer engineering from
Hokkaido University, Japan, in 1978, 1980
and 1992, respectively.

Semantic Information Processing
of Spoken Language - How May I Help You? (sm)
Allen Gorin
AT&T Laboratories - Speech Research
Florham Park, New Jersey
Abstract:
The next generation of voice-based user interface
technology will enable easy-to-use automation
of new and existing communication services,
achieving a more natural human-machine interaction.
By natural, we mean that the machine understands
what people actually say, in contrast to what
a system designer expects them to say. This
approach is in contrast with menu-driven or
strongly-prompted systems, where many users
are unable or unwilling to navigate such highly
structured interactions. AT&T's 'How May I
Help You?' (HMIHY)(sm) technology shifts the
burden from human to machine wherein the system
adapts to peoples' language, as contrasted
with forcing users to learn the machine's
jargon. We have developed algorithms which
learn to extract meaning from fluent speech
via automatic acquisition and exploitation
of salient words, phrases and grammar fragments
from a corpus. In this talk I will describe
the speech, language and dialog technology
underlying HMIHY, plus experimental evaluation
on live customer traffic from AT&T's national
deployment for customer care.
About Allen Gorin:
Allen Gorin is the Head of the Speech Interface
Research Department at AT&T Laboratories,
with long-term research interests focusing
on machine learning methods for spoken language
understanding. In recent years, he has led
a research team in applying speech, language
and dialog technology to AT&T's "How May I
Help You?" (HMIHY) (sm) service, which has
been deployed nationally for long distance
customer care. He was awarded the 2002 AT&T
Science and Technology Medal for his research
contributions to spoken language understanding
for HMIHY.
He received the B.S. and M.A. degrees in
Mathematics from SUNY at Stony Brook, and
the Ph.D. in Mathematics from the CUNY Graduate
Center in 1980. From 1980-83 he worked at
Lockheed investigating algorithms for target
recognition from time-varying imagery. In
1983 he joined AT&T Bell Labs where he was
the Principal Investigator for AT&T's ASPEN
project within the DARPA Strategic Computing
Program, investigating parallel architectures
and algorithms for pattern recognition.
In 1987, he was appointed a Distinguished
Member of the Technical Staff. In 1988,
he joined the Speech Research Department
at Bell Labs. He has served as a guest editor
for the IEEE Transactions on Speech and
Audio, and was a visiting researcher at
the ATR Interpreting Telecommunications
Research Laboratory in Japan. He is a member
of the Acoustical Society of America, Association
for Computational Linguistics and an IEEE
Senior Member.
