Introduction # (-1)

4th year Senior Computer Engineering

HCI has been a fascinating subject for me since I started college. I want to know the modern day advancements happening in this field and at the same time have some hands on experience as well.

I have been involved in HCI projects like Mechanix and Haptigo with the SRL lab.

In 10 years time , I will probably be sitting somewhere besides the ocean or the mountains and thinking about new ideas and how they can change lives of ordinary people and have my manpower implement them.

The next biggest technological advancement on Computer Science will be artificial intelligence integration in mobile computing.

If I was able to travel back in time I would like to meet Hitler and ask him how he could convince so many people to follow him despite for wrong reasons.

My favorite style of shoes are boat shoes because they are stylish and comfortable at the same time.
I would want to be fluent in Italian because I am really impressed and awed by the Roman Civilization and Rome.

I have a twin brother and many people do not believe this.

    What? Twin brother? I had no idea? Here at TAMU?

    I wrote that the next big thing will be AI integration in mobile computing, and 2 months later Apple releases iPhone 4s with SIRI.

Paper Reading #20: The Aligned Rank Transform for Nonparametric Factorial Analyses Using Only ANOVA Procedures

Reference Authors and Affiliations: Leah Findlater,Jacob O. Wobbrock ,The Information School DUB Group University of Washington Seattle, WA 98195 USA Darren Gergle, School of Communication Northwestern University Evanston, IL 60208 USA James J. Higgins,Department of Statistics Kansas State University Manhattan, KS 66506 USA Presentation: CHI 2011, May 7–12, 2011, Vancouver, BC, Canada. Summary Hypothesis: The paper present the Aligned Rank Transform (ART) for nonparametric factorial data analysis in HCI. They propose a preprocessing step that “aligns” data before applying averaged ranks, after which point, common ANOVA procedures can be used, making the ART accessible to anyone familiar with the F-test. They hypothesize that researchers only familiar with ANOVA can use, interpret, and report results from the ART. Contents Conover and Iman’s Rank Transform (RT) uses the parametric F-test on the ranks, resulting in a nonparametric factorial procedu...

Reference Authors and Affiliations: Shaun K. Kane, Jacob O. Wobbrock - The Information School, DUB Group University of Washington Seattle, WA 98195 USA Richard E. Ladner - Computer Science & Engineering, DUB Group University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98195 USA Presentation :CHI 2011, May 7–12, 2011, Vancouver, BC, Canada Summary Hypothesis The paper suggests that the blind people have different gesture preferences than sighted people, including preferences for edge-based gestures and gestures that involve tapping virtual keys on a keyboard. They hypothesize differences in the speed, size, and shape of gestures performed by blind people versus those performed by sighted people. Contents Accessible touch screens still present challenges to both users and designers. Users must be able to learn new touch screen applications quickly and effectively, while designers must be able to implement accessible touch screen interaction techniques for a diverse range of devices and application...

Authors then present a human-robot system as a proof-of-concept that uses real-time cognitive state information as input and adapts in response. They hypothesize that the prototype system serves as ...
