Study Notes
- Sensor and Recognition Based Input are important for Interaction and Context Awareness.
- The lesson aims to explore the potential of context awareness and neural networks, which creates more natural and intuitive human-computer interactions.
Introduction
- Computers' prevalence and integration grew rapidly, with user-machine interaction paradigms evolving since the mid-20th century.
- Computing capacity has increased and the third phase of computerization, cloud computing, has rapidly evolved.
Context Awareness
- Context awareness allows a computer system to understand and react to a user's current position, environment, and usage context within Human-Computer Interaction (HCI).
- This requires the system to recognize and comprehend the user's physical, social, and emotional context to modify its behaviour.
Context Awareness Examples in HCI
- Smartphones can automatically adjust settings based on location (silent mode in conferences) or lighting (display brightness).
- Personal assistants can understand a user's purpose, identify their voice, and provide context-aware information or actions like reading schedules while driving or weather updates.
- Home automation systems can adjust temperature, lighting, and security when they recognize the owner is away.
Concept Recognition in Context Awareness
Virtual Assistants
- Virtual assistants use concept recognition to comprehend and action natural language instructions.
- Examples include Siri, Alexa, Google Assistant, and Samsung's Bixby.
Speech Recognition
- Speech recognition systems use concept recognition to understand and transcribe spoken words into text.
- Examples include Apple's Dictation and Google's Live Transcribe.
Natural Language Processing (NLP)
- Concept recognition is key for NLP to understand the meaning behind text and generate appropriate responses.
Information Retrieval
- Search engines use concept recognition to understand user queries and provide relevant results.
Image & Video Recognition
- Concept recognition enables systems to identify objects and concepts within images and videos.
Finance Assistants
- Image and video recognition identifies images or objects in the videos to assist
Transportation
- Transportation systems use concept recognition to understand the user's intent, deliver key information, and perform the intended task.
Takeaways
- Context awareness is vital in HCI for computers to understand and respond to the user's environment, wants, and preferences.
- More effective and individual engagement can result.
- Reduces unnecessary sensitive information sharing, and also increases security and privacy.
