Designing Apps to Track Mental Workload (2023)
Presentation / Conference
Wilson, M., Shaban, J., Ma, X., Shalliker, M., Midha, S., & Sharples, S. (2023, September). Designing Apps to Track Mental Workload. Paper presented at The Future of Cognitive Personal Informatics, Athens, Greece and online

Brain-related wearables are now freely available on the market, and with even wrist-worn devices making estimates about cognitive activity, understanding Cognitive Personal Informatics (CogPI) has become a pressing issue. In this paper, we present a... Read More about Designing Apps to Track Mental Workload.

When High Mental Workload is Good and Low Mental Workload is Bad (2023)
Presentation / Conference
Shaban, J., Roy, M., Stephens-Marsh, M., Wilson, M. L., & Sharples, S. (2023, September). When High Mental Workload is Good and Low Mental Workload is Bad. Paper presented at The Future of Cognitive Personal Informatics, Athens, Greece and online

Brain-related wearables are now freely available on the market, and with even wrist-worn devices making estimates about cognitive activity, understanding cognitive personal informatics has become a pressing issue. Mental Workload is an emotionally ag... Read More about When High Mental Workload is Good and Low Mental Workload is Bad.

Responsible AI and the Arts: The Ethical and Legal Implications of AI in the Arts and Creative Industries (2023)
Presentation / Conference
Piskopani, A., Chamberlain, A., & Ten Holter, C. (2023, July). Responsible AI and the Arts: The Ethical and Legal Implications of AI in the Arts and Creative Industries. Poster presented at First International Symposium on Trustworthy Autonomous Systems (TAS '23), Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh

This position piece starts to examine the ways in which AI-based autonomous technologies have begun to influence a range of human activities in the arts and creative industries.The rise of AI-generated art could potentially transform the act of creat...

In-the-Wild Failures in a Long-Term HRI Deployment (2023)
Presentation / Conference
Del Duchetto, F., Kucukyilmaz, A., & Hanheide, M. (2023, May). In-the-Wild Failures in a Long-Term HRI Deployment. Poster presented at International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), London, UK

Failures are typical in robotics deployments "in-the-wild", especially when robots perform their functions within social human spaces. This paper reports on the failures of an autonomous social robot called Lindsey, which has been used in a public mu... Read More about In-the-Wild Failures in a Long-Term HRI Deployment.
