Shuchang Xu, Minglong Tang, Junyan Mao +7
Despite growing interest in applying AI to photo-based reminiscence therapy (PRT) for people with dementia (PwD), existing systems primarily focus on PwD-AI interaction and often o…
Sonic Stage: Auto-Generating Interactive Spatial Soundscapes to Facilitate Dialogue Video Comprehension for Blind Viewers
Shuchang Xu, Xiaofu Jin, Gaurav Jain +4
Audio description (AD) makes film and television accessible to blind and low-vision (BLV) audiences by narrating characters' actions. However, in scenes with lots of dialogue, AD o…
SupplyNet: Supporting Visual Exploratory Learning in Supply Chain via Contextual Multi-Agent Simulation
Yanjia Li, Kelcy Kexin Han, Tianrui Hu +3
Simulation has long supported supply chain management instruction by letting learners observe network behavior and test decision strategies. Recent progress in LLM-driven agents op…
AdaPT: Adaptive Lesson Plan Transformer for Cross-Regional and Differentiated Instruction
Yanjie Zhang, Jiajun Zhu, Minyu Wu +2
Due to educational inequality, high-quality lesson plans often mismatch the needs of disparate educational contexts. Teachers typically modify existing lesson plans to fit new cont…
Wearable AR for Restorative Breaks: How Interactive Narrative Experiences Support Relaxation for Young Adults
Jindu Wang, Runze Cai, Shuchang Xu +4
Young adults often take breaks from screen-intensive work by consuming digital content on mobile phones, which undermines rest through visual fatigue and inactivity. We introduce a…
