CHI '25Privacy by Design & User Control +2

Investigating Users' Decision-making for Data Privacy Controls in the Context of Internet of Things (IoT) Devices Using an Incentive-compatible Lottery Study

While companies are increasingly moving towards the ‘pay for privacy’ model, it is unclear how consumers make privacy decisions under this model. Toward that, we conducted an incentive-compatible lottery study on Prolific to understand the factors behind users’ choice to have additional data privacy controls. With 265…

CHI '24Human-LLM Collaboration +2

The Role of Inclusion, Control, and Ownership in Workplace AI-Mediated Communication

Given large language models' (LLMs) increasing integration into workplace software, it is important to examine how biases in the models may impact workers. For example, stylistic biases in the language suggested by LLMs may cause feelings of alienation and result in increased labor for individuals or groups whose styl…

CHI '24Honorable MentionGenerative AI (Text, Image, Music, Video) +1

The Value, Benefits, and Concerns of Generative AI-Powered Assistance in Writing

Recent advances in generative AI technologies like large language models raise both excitement and concerns about the future of human-AI co-creation in writing. To unpack people’s attitude towards and experience with generative AI-powered writing assistants, in this paper, we conduct an experiment to understand whethe…

UBICOMP '23Mental Health Apps & Online Support Communities +1

Predicting Symptom Improvement During Depression Treatment Using Sleep Sensory Data

"Depression is a serious mental illness. The current best guideline in depression treatment is closely monitoring patients and adjusting treatment as needed. Close monitoring of patients through physician-administered follow-ups or self-administered questionnaires, however, is difficult in clinical settings due to hig…

UBICOMP '23V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything) Communication Design +2

Cross-Modality Graph-based Language and Sensor Data Co-Learning of Human-Mobility Interaction

"Learning the human--mobility interaction (HMI) on interactive scenes (e.g., how a vehicle turns at an intersection in response to traffic lights and other oncoming vehicles) can enhance the safety, efficiency, and resilience of smart mobility systems (e.g., autonomous vehicles) and many other ubiquitous computing app…

UBICOMP '23Micromobility (E-bike, E-scooter) Interaction +1

Naturalistic E-Scooter Maneuver Recognition with Federated Contrastive Rider Interaction Learning

"Smart micromobility, particularly the electric (e)-scooters, has emerged as an important ubiquitous mobility option that has proliferated within and across many cities in North America and Europe. Due to the fast speed (say, ~15km/h) and ease of maneuvering, understanding how the micromobility rider interacts with th…

"I Want to Figure Things Out": Supporting Exploration in Navigation for People with Visual Impairments

Navigation assistance systems (NASs) aim to help visually impaired people (VIPs) navigate unfamiliar environments. Most of today’s NASs support VIPs via turn-by-turn navigation, but a growing body of work highlights the importance of exploration as well. It is unclear, however, how NASs should be designed to help VIPs…

CHI '23Best PaperPrivacy by Design & User Control +1

The Nuanced Nature of Trust and Privacy Control Adoption in the Context of Google

This paper investigates how trust towards service providers and the adoption of privacy controls belonging to two specific purposes (control over “sharing” vs. “usage” of data) vary based on users’ technical literacy. Towards that, we chose Google as the context and conducted an online survey across 209 Google users.…

Distance Education During the COVID-19 Shutdown: A Process Model of Online Learner Readiness, Experiences and Feelings of Learning

The COVID-19 pandemic that forced the closure of campuses in the spring of 2020 accelerated the diffusion of distance education in Universities worldwide. The need to shift to distance education without time to prepare or train teachers or students led to what has been called a crisis learning situation in what was f…

CHI '22Honorable MentionAutomated Driving Interface & Takeover Design +1

News Informatics: Engaging Individuals with Data-Rich News Content through Interactivity in Source, Medium, and Message

This paper introduces the concept of “news informatics” to refer to journalistic presentation of big data in online sites. For users to be engaged with such data-driven public information, it is important to incorporate interactive tools so that each person can extract personally relevant information. Drawing upon a c…
