Programmers Who Use Screen Readers in the Vibe Coding Era: Adaptation, Empowerment, and New Accessibility Landscape

Generative AI agents are reshaping human-computer interaction, shifting users from direct task execution to supervising machine-driven actions, especially the rise of ``\emph{vibe coding}'' in programming. Yet little is known about how programmers who use screen readers interact with AI code assistants in practice.…

Understanding Community ‘Likes’ and Clinical Perspective in Mental Health Discourse: Insights from YouTube Comments on College Students’ Mental Health

Anonymized, informal environments, such as social media, provide opportunities for individuals to naturally exchange information and receive or provide social support for stigmatized conditions, such as mental health. The sensitive nature of the content shared on these platforms requires automated moderation, which is…

PD-Insighter: A Visual Analytics System to Monitor Daily Actions for Parkinson's Disease Treatment

People with Parkinson's Disease (PD) can slow the progression of their symptoms with physical therapy. However, clinicians lack insight into patients’ motor function during daily life, preventing them from tailoring treatment protocols to patient needs. This paper introduces PD-Insighter, a system for comprehensive an…

Cieran: Designing Sequential Colormaps via In-Situ Active Preference Learning

Quality colormaps can help communicate important data patterns. However, finding an aesthetically pleasing colormap that looks "just right" for a given scenario requires significant design and technical expertise. We introduce Cieran, a tool that allows any data analyst to rapidly find quality colormaps while designin…

Do You See What I See? A Qualitative Study Eliciting High-Level Visualization Comprehension

Designers often create visualizations to achieve specific high-level analytical or communication goals. These goals require people to naturally extract complex, contextualized, and interconnected patterns in data. While limited prior work has studied general high-level interpretation, prevailing perceptual studies of…

Assessing User Trust in Active Learning Systems: Insights from Query Policy and Uncertainty Visualization

Active learning systems have become increasingly popular for various applications in machine learning (ML), including medical imaging, environmental monitoring, and geospatial analysis. These systems rely on inputs dynamically queried from people to enhance classification. Ensuring appropriate analyst trust in these s…

User Perspectives on Ethical Challenges in Human-AI Co-Creativity: A Design Fiction Study

In a human-AI co-creation, AI not only categorizes, evaluates and interprets data but also generates new content and interacts with humans. As co-creative AI is a form of intelligent technology that directly involves humans, it is critical to anticipate and address ethical issues during all design stages. The open-end…

Measuring Categorical Perception in Color-Coded Scatterplots

Scatterplots commonly use color to encode categorical data. However, as datasets increase in size and complexity, the efficacy of these channels may vary. Designers lack insight into how robust different design choices are to variations in category numbers. This paper presents a crowdsourced experiment measuring how t…

Data, Data, Everywhere: Uncovering Everyday Data Experiences for People with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities

Data is everywhere, but may not be accessible to everyone. Conventional data visualization tools and guidelines often do not actively consider the specific needs and abilities of people with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD), leaving them excluded from data-driven activities and vulnerable to ethical i…

The Effects of System Initiative during Conversational Collaborative Search

Our research in this paper lies at the intersection of collaborative and conversational search. We report on a Wizard of Oz lab study in which 27 pairs of participants collaborated on search tasks over the Slack messaging platform. To complete tasks, pairs of collaborators interacted with a so-called \emph{searchbot}…
