Digital interventions to reduce sedentary behaviors of office workers: Scoping review (2018)
Journal Article
Huang, Y., Benford, S., & Blake, H. (2019). Digital interventions to reduce sedentary behaviors of office workers: Scoping review. Journal of Medical Internet Research, 21(2), Article e11079. https://doi.org/10.2196/11079

© Yitong Huang, Steve Benford, Holly Blake. Background: There is a clear public health need to reduce office workers’ sedentary behaviors (SBs), especially in the workplace. Digital technologies are increasingly being deployed in the workplace to mea... Read More about Digital interventions to reduce sedentary behaviors of office workers: Scoping review.

An AI-based design framework to support musicians' practices (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Martinez-Avila, J., Hazzard, A., Chamberlain, A., Greenhalgh, C., & Benford, S. (2018). An AI-based design framework to support musicians' practices. In AM '18: Proceedings of the Audio Mostly 2018 on Sound in Immersion and Emotion (1–5). https://doi.org/10.1145/3243274.3275381

The practice of working musicians extends beyond the act of performing musical works at a concert. Rather, a significant degree of individual and collaborative preparation is necessitated prior to the moment of presentation to an audience. Increasing...

Enhancing supervised classifications with metamorphic relations (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Xu, L., Towey, D., French, A. P., Benford, S., Zhou, Z. Q., & Chen, T. Y. (2018). Enhancing supervised classifications with metamorphic relations. In MET '18: Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop on Metamorphic Testing (46-53). https://doi.org/10.1145/3193977.3193978

We report on a novel use of metamorphic relations (MRs) in machine learning: instead of conducting metamorphic testing, we use MRs for the augmentation of the machine learning algorithms themselves. In particular, we report on how MRs can enable enha... Read More about Enhancing supervised classifications with metamorphic relations.

Designing the Audience Journey through Repeated Experiences (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Benford, S., Greenhalgh, C., Hazzard, A., Chamberlain, A., Kallionpää, M., Weigl, D. M., …Lin, M. (2018). Designing the Audience Journey through Repeated Experiences. In CHI '18: Proceedings of the 2018 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (1-12). https://doi.org/10.1145/3173574.3174142

We report on the design, premiere and public evaluation of a multifaceted audience interface for a complex non-linear musical performance called Climb! which is particularly suited to being experienced more than once. This interface is designed to en... Read More about Designing the Audience Journey through Repeated Experiences.

#Scanners 2 – The MOMENT: a new brain-controlled movie (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ramchurn, R., Wilson, M. L., Martindale, S., & Benford, S. (2018, April). #Scanners 2 – The MOMENT: a new brain-controlled movie. Presented at CHI 2018: ACM SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (Extended Abstracts), Montreal QC, Canada

While many still consider interactive movies an unrealistic idea, current delivery platforms like Netflix, commercial VR, and the proliferation of wearable sensors mean that adaptive and responsive entertainment experiences are an immediate reality....

Customizing hybrid products (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Benford, S., Koleva, B., Preston, W., Angus, A., Thorn, E.-C., & Glover, K. (2018). Customizing hybrid products. In CHI '18 Proceedings of the 2018 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (1–12). https://doi.org/10.1145/3173574.3173604

We explore how the convergence of the digital and physical into hybrid products leads to new possibilities for customization. We report on a technology probe, a hybrid advent calendar with both paper form and digital layers of content, both of which... Read More about Customizing hybrid products.
