Happy Driver

hai-wide

When people give up control of driving to an artificially intelligent agent, what kind of driving style will they enjoy the most? And will their current mood impact their preferences? Rachel Phinnemore answers these questions in her presentation at the Human-AI interaction conference.

Rachel's collaborators were Gabriele Cimolino, Pritam Sarkar, Ali Etemad, and Nick Graham.

Teaching in Geoscience

Geology students learning about erosion processes need to understand the effect of water over time, in three dimensions. Kyle Laporte presented today his research into the use of a touch-based interface for exploring the effects of erosion over time. This work was done in collaboration with Rob Harrap and Nick Graham.

Beyond Fun

Beyond Fun

What does it mean for persons with disabilities to be able to play video games when they thought this pastime was no longer available to them? Gabriele Cimolino and co-authors Dr. Sussan Askari of Providence Care and Nick Graham asked this question of persons with spinal cord injury, and today, Gabriele presented the results of this work at the ASSETS 2021 conference.

Partial Automation

PA

Gabriele Cimolino presented today his work on partial automation at the CHI PLAY 2021 conference. Partial automation is a technique making rehabilitation games accessible to people with very difficult abilities, for example as due to spinal cord injury. With partial automation, the game player controls whichever game inputs they can control, and an AI agent controls the game's other inputs. This work was in collaboration with Dr. Sussan Askari of Providence Care in Kingston, and Nick Graham.
