Defining Acceptable Interaction for Universal Access (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Keates, S. (2015, August). Defining Acceptable Interaction for Universal Access. Presented at 9th International Conference, UAHCI 2015, Los Angeles, USA

Many new assistive input systems developed to meet the needs of users with functional impairments fail to make it out of the research laboratory and into regular use by the intended users. This paper examines some of the reasons for this and focuses... Read More about Defining Acceptable Interaction for Universal Access.

Presented at 2015 12th International Conference on Information Technology - New Generations, Las Vegas, NV, USA

Creating context-aware ad hoc collaborative systems
remains to be one of the primary hurdles hampering the ubiquitous
deployment of IT and communication services. Especially
under mission-critical scenarios, these services must often adhere
to st... Read More about Enabling Real-Time Context-Aware Collaboration through 5G and Mobile Edge Computing.

Finding middle ground? Multi-objective Natural Language Generation from time-series data (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gkatzia, D., Hastie, H., & Lemon, O. (2014, April). Finding middle ground? Multi-objective Natural Language Generation from time-series data. Presented at Proceedings of the 14th Conference of the European Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics, volume 2: Short Papers, Gothenburg, Sweden

A Natural Language Generation (NLG) system is able to generate text from nonlinguistic data, ideally personalising the content to a user’s specific needs. In some cases, however, there are multiple stakeholders with their own individual goals, needs... Read More about Finding middle ground?
