Beyond the well-researched learning experience with tangibles, we developed the system to stimulate and foster discussions on the subject of MSGs.

This chapter focuses on the technological advantages of the presented approach in a performance comparison with other common approaches. Furthermore, an animated time series visualization is introduced, as well as an interface designed specifically for the presented method in order to emphasize the advantages of the approach.

The method is based on a key sociological insight that has been developed and extensively verified over the last twenty years, but has yet to make an impact in artificial intelligence. The insight is that resource bounded humans will, by default, act to maintain affective consistency. Humans have culturally shared fundamental affective sentiments about identities, behaviours, and objects, and they act so that the transient affective sentiments created during interactions confirm the fundamental sentiments. Humans seek and create situations that confirm or are consistent with, and avoid and suppress situations that disconfirm or are inconsistent with, their culturally shared affective sentiments. This "affect control principle" has been shown to be a powerful predictor of human behaviour. In this paper, we present a probabilistic and decision-theoretic generalisation of this principle, and we demonstrate how it can be leveraged to build affectively intelligent artificial agents. The new model, called BayesAct, can maintain multiple hypotheses about sentiments simultaneously as a probability distribution, and can make use of an explicit utility function to make value-directed action choices. This allows the model to generate affectively intelligent interactions with people by learning about their identity, predicting their behaviours using the affect control principle, and taking actions that are simultaneously goal-directed and affect-sensitive. We demonstrate this generalisation with a set of simulations. We then show how our model can be used as an emotional "plug-in" for artificially intelligent systems that interact with humans in two different settings: an exam practice assistant (tutor) and an assistive device for persons with a cognitive disability.}, subject = {Emotionales Verhalten}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{MeierMatthiesUrbanetal., author = {Meier, Anita and Matthies, Denys J.

For this specific task, many researchers already provide different approaches such as vibrating belts, wristbands or shoes. Still, there are issues left that have to be considered, such as which body position is most suitable, what kind of vibration patterns are easy to interpret, and how applicable are vibrotactile feedback systems in real scenarios. To find answers, we reconstructed prototypes commonly found in literature and continued to further evaluate different foot-related designs. On the one hand, we learned that vibrotactile feedback at the foot reduces visual attention and thus also potentially reduces stress. However, on the other hand, we found that urban space can be very diverse, and ambiguous and therefore a vibrotactile system cannot completely replace common path finding systems for pedestrians. Rather, we envision such a system to be applied complementary as an assistive technology.}, subject = {Taktiler Sensor}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{MalhotraYuSchroederetal., author = {Malhotra, Aarti and Yu, Lifei and Schr{\"o}der, Tobias and Hoey, Jesse}, title = {An exploratory study into the use of an emotionally aware cognitive assistant}, series = {AAAI Workshop : Artificial Intelligence Applied to Assistive Technologies and Smart Environments}, booktitle = {AAAI Workshop : Artificial Intelligence Applied to Assistive Technologies and Smart Environments}, publisher = {Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence}, address = {Palo Alto}, pages = {6}, abstract = {This paper presents an exploratory study conducted to understand how audio-visual prompts are understood by people on an emotional level as a first step towards the more challenging task of designing emotionally aligned prompts for persons with cognitive disabilities such as Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). Persons with ADRD often need assistance from a caregiver to complete daily living activities such as washing hands, making food, or getting dressed. Artificially intelligent systems have been developed that can assist in such situations. This paper presents a set of prompt videos of a virtual human 'Rachel', wherein she expressively communicates prompts at each step of a simple hand washing task, with various human-like emotions and behaviors. A user study was conducted for 30 such videos with respect to three basic and important dimensions of emotional experience: evaluation, potency, and activity. The results show that, while people generally agree on the evaluation (valence: good/bad) of a prompt, consensus about power and activity is not as socially homogeneous. Our long term aim is to enhance such systems by delivering automated prompts that are emotionally aligned with individuals in order to help with prompt adherence and with long-term adoption.}, subject = {Audiovisuelles Material}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DeLucaSaidCrestanietal., author = {De Luca, Ernesto William and Said, Alan and Crestani, Fabio and Elsweiler, David}, title = {5th Workshop on Context-Awareness in Retrieval and Recommendation}, series = {Advances in Information Retrieval : 37th European Conference on IR Research, ECIR 2015, Vienna, Austria, March 29 - April 2, 2015.

Our poster contribution takes the example of Augmented Reality (AR) to show a way to use the potential of digital technology for library services. AR offers new possibilities to contextualize library data. Hence the transfer of knowledge can be enriched by virtual information and visualization. In our poster we introduce the project mylibrARy and the status quo of the conceptual process of designing a library AR-app. mylibrARy is a cooperation project between the University of Applied Sciences in Potsdam, a public library in Berlin and metaio GmbH. By providing mobile access to enriched library data the institution is able to stay in touch with users or even generate new users with a high affinity for digital technology. According to the result of our first of four user studies especially the integration of social media and social reading functions plays a crucial role in reaching that aim. Beside the connection to the local library knowledge organization system in the app we plan to integrate further features for the semantic contextualization such as the Wikipedia categories.}, subject = {Wissensorganisation}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{ThomMeierHeidmann, author = {Thom, Andreas and Meier, Sebastian and Heidmann, Frank}, title = {Anforderungsanalyse bei IT-Experten mit der Experience-Sample-Methode}, series = {Mensch und Computer 2015 - Usability Professionals}, booktitle = {Mensch und Computer 2015 - Usability Professionals}, publisher = {De Gruyter}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-1104-4332-5}, doi = {10.1515/9783110443882-015}, pages = {133 -- 143}, abstract = {Dieser Beitrag besch{\"a}ftigt sich mit den Herausforderungen eine Anforderungsanalyse im hoch technologischen Umfeld der IT-Security durchzuf{\"u}hren, bei dem keine der {\"u}blichen ethnografischen Methoden wie teilnehmende Beobachtung u.a. m{\"o}glich waren.
