The Sierpinski brain (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
András, P. (2001, July). The Sierpinski brain. Presented at IJCNN'01: International Joint Conference on Neural Networks, Washington, DC, USA

The paper presents a new approach to the interpretation of chaotic neural activity. It is suggested that such activity forms neural objects represented as spatio-temporal firing patterns and the neural computations are performed through the interacti... Read More about The Sierpinski brain.

Investigating the Cursor Movement Parameters for Haptic Assistance of Motion-impaired Users (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Langdon, P., Hwang, F., Keates, S., Clarkson, P. J., & Robinson, P. (2001, April). Investigating the Cursor Movement Parameters for Haptic Assistance of Motion-impaired Users. Presented at ICORR '2001 7th International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics, Evry, France

Following a pilot study that suggested that force-feedback gravity wells could, under certain conditions, lead to 20- 50% improvements in time to target in a selection task, a series of experiments further investigated the potential for enhancement o...

Perception and haptics: towards more accessible computers for motion-impaired users (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hwang, F., Keates, S., Langdon, P., Clarkson, P. J., & Robinson, P. (2001, November). Perception and haptics: towards more accessible computers for motion-impaired users. Presented at PUI'01 Workshop on Perceptive User Interfaces, Orlando, FL, USA

For people with motion impairments, access to and independent control of a computer can be essential. Symptoms such as tremor and spasm, however, can make the typical keyboard and mouse arrangement for computer interaction difficult or even impossibl...

Combining utility, usability and accessibility methods for universal access (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Keates, S., & Clarkson, P. J. (2001, March). Combining utility, usability and accessibility methods for universal access. Presented at CHI 2001: Anyone. Anywhere, Seattle, USA

It is known that many products are not accessible to large sections of the population. Designers instinctively focus on providing the necessary utility for someone with their physical and skill capabilities. They are either unaware of the needs of us...

Haptic assistance to improve computer access for motion-impaired users (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hwang, F., Langdon, P., Keates, S., & Clarkson, J. (2001, July). Haptic assistance to improve computer access for motion-impaired users. Presented at Eurohaptics 2001, Birmingham, UK

This paper describes a pilot experiment which examines the effectiveness of using force-feedback technology to assist motion-impaired computer users in target selection tasks. Two measures to evaluate the effectiveness of force feedback assistance ar... Read More about Haptic assistance to improve computer access for motion-impaired users.
