Personas Evolved: Designing Ethical LLM-Based Conversational Agent Personalities
Smit Desai, Mateusz Dubiel, Nima Zargham +2
The emergence of Large Language Models (LLMs) has revolutionized Conversational User Interfaces (CUIs), enabling more dynamic, context-aware, and human-like interactions across div…
Transfer Learning for Covert Speech Classification Using EEG Hilbert Envelope and Temporal Fine Structure
Saravanakumar Duraisamy, Mateusz Dubiel, Maurice Rekrut +1
Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) can decode imagined speech from neural activity. However, these systems typically require extensive training sessions where participants imaginedly…
Designing AI Personalities: Enhancing Human-Agent Interaction Through Thoughtful Persona Design
Nima Zargham, Mateusz Dubiel, Smit Desai +2
In the rapidly evolving field of artificial intelligence (AI) agents, designing the agent's characteristics is crucial for shaping user experience. This workshop aims to establish…
Examining Humanness as a Metaphor to Design Voice User Interfaces
Smit Desai, Mateusz Dubiel, Luis A. Leiva
Voice User Interfaces (VUIs) increasingly leverage 'humanness' as a foundational design metaphor, adopting roles like 'assistants,' 'teachers,' and 'secretaries' to foster natural…
A Conceptual Framework for Conversational Search and Recommendation: Conceptualizing Agent-Human Interactions During the Conversational Search Process
Leif Azzopardi, Mateusz Dubiel, Martin Halvey +1
The conversational search task aims to enable a user to resolve information needs via natural language dialogue with an agent. In this paper, we aim to develop a conceptual framewo…
Speech as Interactive Design Material (SIDM): How to design and evaluate task-tailored synthetic voices?
Mateusz Dubiel, Matthew Aylett, Anuschka Schmitt +3
The aim of this workshop is two-fold. First, it aims to establish a research community focused on design and evaluation of synthetic speech (TTS) interfaces that are tailored not o…
Impact of Voice Fidelity on Decision Making: A Potential Dark Pattern?
Mateusz Dubiel, Anastasia Sergeeva, Luis A. Leiva
Manipulative design in user interfaces (conceptualized as dark patterns) has emerged as a significant impediment to the ethical design of technology and a threat to user agency and…
CUI@CHI 2024: Building Trust in CUIs-From Design to Deployment
Smit Desai, Christina Wei, Jaisie Sin +10
Conversational user interfaces (CUIs) have become an everyday technology for people the world over, as well as a booming area of research. Advances in voice synthesis and the emerg…
A Contextual Framework for Adaptive User Interfaces: Modelling the Interaction Environment
Mateusz Dubiel, Bereket Abera Yilma, Kayhan Latifzadeh +1
The interaction context (or environment) is key to any HCI task and especially to adaptive user interfaces (AUIs), since it represents the conditions under which users interact wit…
