Creativity from Surprise: Bridging the Gap Between Fashion Designers' Inspiration Work and AI Creative Support Tools

Advances in Generative AI (GenAI) enable unexpected creation in visual images. In fashion design, this capability has intensified demand for creativity support tools where fast-paced trends challenge fixation and drive exploration of novel creative directions. While prior work has explored interfaces that align desig…

Criticmate: Stagewise Human-AI Co-Critique in UI Design through Situation Awareness

AI tools are increasingly used for UI evaluation, yet most treat evaluation as a single-pass, black-box process that limits both effective model reasoning and human involvement. Grounded in Situation Awareness (SA) theory, we reframe single-screen heuristic evaluation of mobile UIs as stagewise human--AI co-critique,…

Understanding Compliance and Conversion Dynamics in Multi-Agent Collectives

Multi-agent AI systems are increasingly prevalent across digital environments, yet their social influence dynamics remain underexplored beyond basic compliance. This study investigates how different multi-agent configurations affect human decision-making through compliance and conversion mechanisms. We conducted a con…

"Here, Let Me Help": An Empirical Study of User Interventions in Human–Web Agent Collaboration

Web agents aim to execute complex online tasks from high-level instructions, yet fully autonomous execution remains challenging in practice. We present an empirical study of user interventions in human–web agent collaboration, moving beyond outcome-based metrics to examine how interventions unfold during execution. We…

I Feel We Are Together: How People Perceive Personalized Face-Swapped GIFs in Text-Based Communication

Nonverbal cues in text-based computer-mediated communication (CMC), initially introduced to compensate for the lack of social and emotional cues, have evolved beyond their original purpose to express user identity. In particular, embodied identity cues—such as a user’s real face—remain relatively underexplored in text…

Mod2Hap: Two Level Modular Haptic System for Body- and Hand- Interactions using Magnetorheological Fluid

We present Mod2Hap, a two-level modular haptic system that enables both body-scale and hand-scale interactions using magnetorheological (MR) fluid. The system comprises (1) configurable frame modules for constructing spatial interaction structures, which can be flexibly assembled to suit various body postures and envi…

StabilizAR: Enabling Hands-Free Head Pointing while Mobile

Wearable Augmented Reality headsets are inherently mobile: they enable hands-free and immersive interaction while on the go. Despite this, research into input methods that cater to mobility issues, such as the instabilities introduced by canonical tasks such as walking, remains in its infancy. This paper addresses thi…

Pati & Bellio: Coordinating Face-to-Face Interruptions via Availability Expressions and Proximal Notifications in Open-Plan Offices

In open-plan offices, face-to-face (F2F) interruptions frequently occur to facilitate collaboration and cooperation with colleagues. We designed Pati & Bellio to support the coordination of F2F interruptions in open-plan offices. Pati is a partition-style personal device that visualizes availability for F2F interrupti…

Lino: An Interactive System for Daily Mood Recordings Supporting Meaning-Making through Single Stroke Drawing Approach

Mood is influenced by complex factors and involves subjective interpretation, leading to diverse methods of recording it. While existing tools provide customizable features, they often fall short in promoting deep reflection and meaningful engagement. We developed Lino, an interactive system that includes single strok…

Diversifying Grain-Based Compliance Illusion by Varying Base Compliance

Grain-based compliance illusion mimics the mechanical vibrations when a compliant object deforms with grain-like, short (~15 ms) impulse-response vibrations. Previous work has demonstrated its robust effect on various types of devices. However, the impact of the device's inherent compliance (i.e., base compliance) on…

BudsID: Mobile-Ready and Expressive Finger Identification Input for Earbuds

Wireless earbuds are an appealing platform for wearable computing on-the-go. However, their small size and out-of-view location mean they support limited different inputs. We propose finger identification input on earbuds as a novel technique to resolve these problems. This technique involves associating touches by di…

Unveiling High-dimensional Backstage: A Survey for Reliable Visual Analytics with Dimensionality Reduction

Dimensionality reduction (DR) techniques are essential for visually analyzing high-dimensional data. However, visual analytics using DR often face unreliability, stemming from factors such as inherent distortions in DR projections. This unreliability can lead to analytic insights that misrepresent the underlying data,…

Journey to My Past: Exploring and Journaling Past Memories Evoked by Questions Framed as Proud Moments

Accumulating a life history is a valuable resource for understanding self and reflecting on personal historical experience, which could be developed through diary writing. To facilitate the recording of past events in a diary, we designed and implemented Rebulb, a system that enables users to engage with reflective qu…

Expanding the Design Space of Computer Vision-based Interactive Systems for Group Dance Practice

Group dance, a sub-genre characterized by intricate motions made by a cohort of performers in tight synchronization, has a longstanding and culturally significant history and, in modern forms such as cheerleading, a broad base of current adherents. However, despite its popularity, learning group dance routines remains…

QuadStretcher: A Forearm-Worn Skin Stretch Display for Bare-Hand Interaction in AR/VR

The paradigm of bare-hand interaction has become increasingly prevalent in Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) environments, propelled by advancements in hand tracking technology. However, a significant challenge arises in delivering haptic feedback to users’ hands, due to the necessity for the hands to re…

How Much Decision Power Should (A)I Have?: Investigating Patients’ Preferences Towards AI Autonomy in Healthcare Decision Making

Despite the growing potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in improving clinical decision making, patients' perspectives on the use of AI for their care decision making are underexplored. In this paper, we investigate patients’ preferences towards the autonomy of AI in assisting healthcare decision making. We condu…

SkullID: Through-Skull Sound Conduction based Authentication for Smartglasses

This paper investigates the use of through-skull sound conduction to authenticate smartglass users. We mount a surface transducer on the right mastoid process to play cue signals and capture skull-transformed audio responses through contact microphones on various skull locations. We use the resultant bio-acoustic info…

ThumbAir: In-Air Typing for Head Mounted Displays

Typing while wearing a standalone Head Mounted Display (HMD)---systems without external input devices or sensors to support text entry---is hard. To address this issue, prior work has used external trackers to monitor finger movements to support in-air typing on virtual keyboards. While performance has been promising,…
