Experiencing mundane AI futures (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pilling, M., Coulton, P., Lodge, T., Crabtreeb, A., & Chamberlain, A. (2022, June). Experiencing mundane AI futures. Presented at DRS2022, Bilbao, Spain

Whilst popular visions of Artificial Intelligence (AI) are often presented through the lens of sentient machines, our lived experience of AI is more mundane and exemplified by so-called ‘smart’ products and services. Whilst this mundane reality is of... Read More about Experiencing mundane AI futures.

Exploring self-tracking practices for those with lived experience of bipolar disorder: Learning from combined principles of Patient and Public Involvement and HCI (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Majid, S., Morriss, R., Figueredo, G., & Reeves, S. (2022, June). Exploring self-tracking practices for those with lived experience of bipolar disorder: Learning from combined principles of Patient and Public Involvement and HCI. Presented at DIS 2022 - Proceedings of the 2022 ACM Designing Interactive Systems Conference: Digital Wellbeing, Virtual Event, Australia

Bipolar Disorder (BD) is a complex, cyclical and chronic mental illness where self-tracking is central to self-management. Mobile technology is often leveraged to support this. Limited research has investigated the everyday practices of self-tracking...

Crafting Trajectories of Smart Phone Use at the Opera (2022)
Journal Article
Greenhalgh, C., Hazzard, A., Benford, S., Cliffe, L., & Kelly, E. (2022). Crafting Trajectories of Smart Phone Use at the Opera. ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction, 29(6), 1-37. https://doi.org/10.1145/3531007

Losing Her Voice is a new opera which highlights the challenges of subtly interweaving digital technologies into established cultural forms. Audience members were encouraged to use their own mobile phones to interact with on-stage projections before,... Read More about Crafting Trajectories of Smart Phone Use at the Opera.

P-Lite: A study of parallel coordinate plot literacy (2022)
Journal Article
Firat, E. E., Denisova, A., Wilson, M. L., & Laramee, R. S. (2022). P-Lite: A study of parallel coordinate plot literacy. Visual Informatics, 6(3), 81-99. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.visinf.2022.05.002

Visualization literacy, the ability to interpret and comprehend visual designs, is recognized as an essential skill by the visualization community. We identify and investigate barriers to comprehending parallel coordinates plots (PCPs), one of the ad... Read More about P-Lite: A study of parallel coordinate plot literacy.

Visual Analytics of Contact Tracing Policy Simulations During an Emergency Response (2022)
Journal Article
Sondag, M., Turkay, C., Xu, K., Matthews, L., Mohr, S., & Archambault, D. (2022). Visual Analytics of Contact Tracing Policy Simulations During an Emergency Response. Computer Graphics Forum, 41(3), 29-41. https://doi.org/10.1111/cgf.14520

Epidemiologists use individual-based models to (a) simulate disease spread over dynamic contact networks and (b) to investigate strategies to control the outbreak. These model simulations generate complex ‘infection maps’ of time-varying transmission... Read More about Visual Analytics of Contact Tracing Policy Simulations During an Emergency Response.

Push-to-See: Learning Non-Prehensile Manipulation to Enhance Instance Segmentation via Deep Q-Learning (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Serhan, B., Pandya, H., Kucukyilmaz, A., & Neumann, G. (2022, May). Push-to-See: Learning Non-Prehensile Manipulation to Enhance Instance Segmentation via Deep Q-Learning. Presented at 2022 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA 2022), Philadelphia, USA

Efficient robotic manipulation of objects for sorting and searching often rely upon how well the objects are perceived and the available grasp poses. The challenge arises when the objects are irregular, have similar visual features (e.g., textureless...

Tackling communication and analytical problems in environmental planning: Expert assessment of key definitions and their relationships (2022)
Journal Article
Wallace, K. J., Wagner, C., Pannell, D. J., Kim, M. K., & Rogers, A. A. (2022). Tackling communication and analytical problems in environmental planning: Expert assessment of key definitions and their relationships. Journal of Environmental Management, 317, Article 115352. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvman.2022.115352

Inadequate definition of key terms and their relationships generates significant communication and analytical problems in environmental planning. In this work, we evaluate an ontological framework for environmental planning designed to combat these p...

Towards Refactoring FRETish Requirements (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Farrell, M., Luckcuck, M., Sheridan, O., & Monahan, R. (2022, May). Towards Refactoring FRETish Requirements. Presented at NASA Formal Methods Symposium (NFM) 2022, California, USA

Like software, requirements evolve and change frequently during the development process. Refactoring is the process of reorganising software without changing its behaviour, to make it easier to understand and modify. We propose refactoring for formal...

Responsible AI, SDGs, and AI Governance in Africa (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wakunuma, K., Ogoh, G., Eke, D. O., & Akintoye, S. (2022, May). Responsible AI, SDGs, and AI Governance in Africa. Presented at 2022 IST-Africa Conference (IST-Africa), Ireland

More than ever before, AI is now an area of national strategic importance. This has become quite evident with the proliferation of national AI strategies since the first was launched in Canada in 2017. There is now an ever-growing body of national AI...
