▼ Eye tracking, the process of capturing the gaze location within a display, is extensively used in usability studies, psychology, human-computer interaction, and marketing. The setup and operation of modern eye trackers is time-consuming and a specialist is needed to calibrate them and be present throughout the experiment, leading to highly-controlled user studies with artificial tasks and only a small number of participants. In addition, their steep price, which rises to tens of thousands of dollars, restricts their use to only a small number of labs that can afford them. This thesis aims to democratize eye tracking by using common webcams already present in laptops and desktops. We introduce WebGazer, a webcam eye tracker that infers the gaze of web visitors in real time. WebGazer is developed as an open-source JavaScript library that can be incorporated into any website. Its eye tracking model self-calibrates by mapping eye features to positions on the display that correspond to user interactions. We investigate whether webcam eye tracking can lead to similar conclusions to in-lab eye tracking studies. We explore this question in the context of web search, by extending WebGazer so that it can predict the examined search element within a search engine result page. We use SearchGazer to replicate three seminal studies in the area of information retrieval and demonstrate that scalable and remote eye tracking studies on user behavior are possible at a fraction of cost and time. Finally, we create a benchmark for webcam eye tracking with data collected from a lab study with more than 60 participants. This dataset allows us to investigate the relationship between user interactions and gaze, confirming past findings on the alignment of gaze with clicks and cursor movement, and introducing novel insights into the differences in gaze behavior across users based on their ability to touch type. Taking advantage of the temporal alignment of gaze and user interactions, we perform improvements in WebGazer's accuracy and functionality. These contributions make eye tracking accessible to everyday users, researchers, and developers. Traditional eye tracking studies that are confined to labs can now be performed remotely and at scale. Subjects can participate in studies in their everyday environments which can yield a more naturalistic behavior and lead to more powerful insights.

▼ Three dimensional product design models are widely used in conceptual design and in the early stage of prototyping during the design processes. A product design specification often demands a substantial amount of 3D models to be constructed within a short period of time. Current methods begin with designers sketching product concepts in 2D using pencil and paper, which in turn are then translated into 3D models by a design individual with CAD expertise, using a 3D modelling software package such as Pro Engineer, Solid Works, Auto CAD etc. Several novel methods have been used to incorporate hand motion as a way of interacting with computers. There are three main types of technology available to capture motion data, capable of translating human motion into numeric data which can be read by a computer system. The first being, hand gesture glove-based systems such as “Cyberglove”, these systems are generally used to capture hand gesture and joint angle information. The second is full body motion capture systems, optical and non-optical-based, and finally vision based gesture recognition systems which capture full degree of - freedom (DOF) hand motion estimation. There has yet to be a method using any of the above mentioned input devices to rapidly produce 3D product design models in real time, using hand motion and gestures. In this research, a novel method is presented, using a motion capture system to capture hand gestures and motion in real time, to recreate 3D curves and surfaces, which can be translated into 3D product design models. The main aim of this research is to develop a hand motion and gesture-based rapid 3D product modelling method, allowing designers to interactively sketch out 3D concepts in real time using a virtual workspace. A database of a number of hand signs was built for both architectural hand signs (preliminary study) and Product Design hand signs. A marker set model with a total of eight markers (five on the left hand and three on right hand/marker pen) was designed and used in the capture of hand gestures with the use of an Optical Motion Capture System. A preliminary testing session was successfully completed to determine whether the Motion Capture system would be suitable for a real-time application, by effectively modelling a train station in an offline state using hand motion and gesture. An OpenGL software application was programmed using C++ and the Microsoft Foundation Classes which was used to communicate and pass information of captured motion from the EVaRT system to the user.

▼ Games are fundamentally a social activity. The effects of this foundation can be felt at every level - from the social negotiation of rules, through cooperation and collaboration between players during the game, to the effects of relationships and social status on play. Social effects can change the way the game is played, but the mechanics of games can also affect the patterns of social behaviours of the players. The arrangement of game mechanics and interfaces together defines a ``social architecture". This architecture is not limited to directly social mechanics such as trading and messaging - the game design itself has a holistic effect on social activity. This dissertation frames games around these social aspects, and focuses on analysis of the patterns that emerge from these playful interactions. Firstly, a model is defined to understand games based on the social effects of play, and these effects explored based on the varying impact they have on the play experience. Mischief and deviance is also investigated as forces that challenge these social effects in and around games. Based on interaction data gathered from server logs of experimental social games, social network analysis is used as a tool to uncover the macroscopic social architectures formed by each design. This allows the use of quantitative methods to understand the nature of the relationship between game design and the social patterns that emerge around games in play. Key findings confirm that social activity follows a heavy-tailed distribution - a small number of ``hardcore" players are responsible for a disproportionately large number of interactions in the community of the game. Further than this, the connections between active hardcore and the rest of the player base show that without the hardcore users, the community of games as ``small worlds" would collapse, with large numbers of players being separated from the society within a game. The emergence of grouping behaviour is investigated based on the effect of social feedback. Following findings of social psychology in non-game environments, evidence is provided that highlights the effect of socio-contextual feedback on players forming strongly bound tribal groups within games. The communities formed through the play of games can be described in terms of network graphs - webs of interactions flowing around a network of players. Social network analyses of social games show the emergence of patterns of reciprocity, clustering and tribal behaviours among the players. The evidence also shows that the collections of game mechanics, or social architectures, of games have a predictable effect on the wider social patterns of the players. As such, this suggests games can be specifically engineered for social effects based on changes in the patterns of interactions, and issues around mechanical or interface elements can be identified based on anomalies observed in the network graph of player interactions. Together, this dissertation provides a link between the theoretical ideas around social play to the…

▼ Humans are essentially probabilistic in nature, so that repeated movements made by different perons and even the same person will vary from trial to trial. This variability is shown in past studies of movements made, using the Fitts paradigm. These studies, which investigate the microstructure of movements, show that a movement is made up of a sequence of submovements and that the number of submovements used under a given experimental condition may vary. Most derivations of Fitts' law are deterministic, that is, no consideration was made of the probabilistic nature of human beings. In these studies, the variation of movement time with Index of Difficulty (ID) was considered under different conditions and for different tasks. There are several studies that have investigated the number of submovements, and their duration and variability in a probabilistic way. This thesis investigates the distribution of movement time (MT) and sub-movements as a function of ID, and interprets Fitts' law by a simple probabilistic derivation. A computer-based mouse movement was adopted. The trajectory of the movement was recorded and analyzed to identify the distribution of sub-movements and MTs. Results showed the probabilistic characteristics of movements and interpreted Fitts' Law by a model of sub-movements based on the skewness of the MT distributions. Furthermore, previous studies' results were also validated and discussed. In addition, EMG data of hand movement was coupled with on-screen cursor movement, and used to validate the cursor's moving profiles. Inside kinetic and biomechanical characteristics with muscle pulse were correlated with cursor movement, and the relationship was build and modeled. The contribution of the study in this thesis is to fill the gap between purely deterministic and purely probabilistic models, and introduce a more realistic explanation of the microstructure of the aiming task and Fitts' Law. Moreover, it also contributes to link the virtual output on display with the physical arm muscle control with an explanatory relationship.

▼ There is much research in the literature regarding the construction of distributed virtual reality implementations. After evaluating some well-known virtual reality systems, it was determined that several problems exist that need to be solved. In particular: network efficiency, object distribution and coherency, inadequate system resource management, and overall performance. In order to properly address these issues, a holistic design approach is taken. The entire system is examined, rather than focusing on a specific problem area (such as the human-computer interface). The major component of this work, the Newtonian Architecture for Virtual Landscapes (NAVL), is presented to respond to the problems areas discovered. Highlights of the architecture include: (1) A distributed client/server network that addressed the networking issues. (2) Autonomous objects encapsulate control and object state into a single entity. Using autonomous objects avoids lengthy synchronization processes (e.g., full database locking). (3) ForceLets, a novel synchronization method, minimize the network bandwidth required to keep an object synchronized at remote locations. In addition, ForceLets provide much improved synchronization of the object at the remote locations in the presence of network lag. Implementation details of the NAVL prototype are also presented. The implementation consists of an object simulation and execution unit, rendering and collision detection unit, and network subsystem and protocols. An evaluation of the NAVL system architecture examines the efficiency of the key architectural components: (1) A bandwidth and latency analysis examines the efficiency of the distributed client/server network. (2) The object distribution and coherency components are tested directly from the prototype. Profiles of actual prototype execution are used to show the efficiency gains of the ForceLet approach as compared to the commonly used stream-of-data coherency mechanism. (3) The rendering and collision detection unit is tested by examining the effects on CPU utilization and frame rate with increases in the number of virtual objects.

▼ Sensing, computing and communicating are three basic elements of the Internet of Things (IoT). Benefited from hardware innovation, present devices have been enhanced to such a extent that even a palm-sized device owes powerful sensing, computing and communicating capabilities. This consequently promotes the broad applications of ubiquitous computing and blurs the boundary between human and device. In such a situation, the human-device interaction (HDI) is becoming increasingly pervasive around us and covers a wide range of applications including environment sensing and human dynamics sensing. In this thesis, we follow a line of exploring different approaches of designing human-device interactive systems for the mentioned applications. Specifically, we propose four novel systems in this thesis covering two aspects of human-device interaction from application perspective, namely, environment sensing and human dynamics sensing. In the first work, we propose a novel system to aid users distinguish in-wall objects and map hidden pipeline layout, using off-the-shelf sensors embedded in smartphones. In the second work, we design a objects distinguishing system named TagFree with commercial Wi-Fi infrastructure which differentiates a single object at a time or up to three objects simultaneously with favorable performance. Compared with conventional methods, this system removes the need of additional devices attached to objects. Following the above work in environment sensing, we also conduct research in gesture recognition and text entry with commodity devices. In the third work, we develop GRfid, a novel device-free gesture recognition system based on phase information output by COTS RFID devices which is potentially applied in smart homes, museums and art galleries where RFID technology is widely utilized. In the last work, we present a novel text-entry system, AcouTexts, aiming at dealing with problem of inputting texts on tiny devices. With AcouTexts, users can enter texts to a device by just using a finger even without touching the device. We prototype the above systems with commodity devices/infrastructure and evaluate their performances with real-world experiments.

▼ Since the introduction of their modern form 20 years ago, recommender systems have proven a valuable tool for help users manage information overload.Two decades of research have produced many algorithms for computing recommendations, mechanisms for evaluating their effectiveness, and user interfaces and experiences to embody them.It has also been found that the outputs of different recommendation algorithms differ in user-perceptible ways that affect their suitability to different tasks and information needs.However, there has been little work to systematically map out the space of algorithms and the characteristics they exhibit that makes them more or less effective in different applications. As a result, developers of recommender systems must experiment, conducting basic science on each application and its users to determine the approach(es) that will meet their needs.This thesis presents our work towards \emph{recommender engineering}: the design of recommender systems from well-understood principles of user needs, domain properties, and algorithm behaviors.This will reduce the experimentation required for each new recommender application, allowing developers to design recommender systems that are likely to be effective for their particular application.To that end, we make four contributions: the LensKit toolkit for conducting experiments on a wide variety of recommender algorithms and data sets under different experimental conditions (offline experiments with diverse metrics, online user studies, and the ability to grow to support additional methodologies), along with new developments in object-oriented software configuration to support this toolkit;experiments on the configuration options of widely-used algorithms to provide guidance on tuning and configuring them; an offline experiment on the differences in the errors made by different algorithms; and a user study on the user-perceptible differences between lists of movie recommendations produced by three common recommender algorithms.Much research is needed to fully realize the vision of recommender engineering in the coming years; it is our hope that LensKit will prove a valuable foundation for much of this work, and our experiments represent a small piece of the kinds of studies that must be carried out, replicated, and validated to enable recommender systems to be engineered.

▼ In this work, we present new data-types, analytics, and human-computer interfaces as a platform to enable a new type of co-adaptive-behavioural analyses to track neuroplasticity. We exhibit seven different works, all of which are steps in creating an interface that “collaborates” in a closed-loop formula with the sensory-motor system in order to augment existing or substitute lost sensations. Such interfaces are beneficial as they enable the systems to adapt and evolve based on the participants’ rate of adaptation and preferences in evolution, ultimately steering the system towards favorable regimes. We started by trying to address the question: textit{"how does our novel sensory-motor system learn and adapt to changes?"}. In a pointing task, subjects had to discover and learn the sequence of the points presented on the screen (which was repetitive) and familiarise themselves with a non-predicted event (which occurred occasionally). In this very first study, we examined the learnability of motor system across seven individuals, and we investigated the learning patterns of each individual. Then, we explored how other bodily signals, such as temperature, are affecting movement. At this point, we conducted two studies. In the first one, we looked into the impact of the temperature range in the quality of the performed movement. This study was conducted in 40 individuals, 20 Schizophrenia patients, known to have temperature irregularities, and 20 controls. We identified the differences between the two populations in the range of temperature and the stochastic signatures of their kinematic data. To have a better look into the relation of movement and temperature, we conducted a second study utilizing data of a pre-professional ballet student recorded during her 6h training and her follow up sleep. For this study, we designed a new data type that allows us to examine movement as a function of temperature and see how each degree of temperature impacts the fluctuations in movement. This new data structure could be used for the integration of any bodily signal. Next, we identified the need to build visualization tools that could picture in real-time sensory information extracted from the analysis that would be informative to the participant. Such tools could be used in a vision-driven co-adaptive interface. For this reason, we designed an in-Matlab avatar that enables us to color-code sensory information to the corresponding body parts of the participant. In our next study, we examined two college-age individuals (a control and an Asperger syndrome) under sensory modalities and preferences. We built methods to extract for each individual the preferred sensory modality from the motor stream, textbf{selectivity}, and preferences of the particular modality that motivate the system to perform at its best, textbf{preferability}. These two parameters were critical to finally close the loop by letting the system decide upon the individual preferences. Therefore, we moved from the open-loop approach, to… Advisors/Committee Members: Torres, Elizabeth (chair), Metaxas, Dimitris (internal member), Bekris, Kostas (internal member), Moustakides, Geiorge (internal member), Ihlefeld, Antje (outside member), School of Graduate Studies.

▼ Culture shapes most human behaviour, including interaction with computers. In much Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) research, culture is assumed to impact design preferences. However, many cultural variables identified in the general literature have no clear link to design preferences. In this thesis, we develop a new model, the Diamond Model, to structure a wide range of cultural variables. This is used to organise a literature review of cultural variables and their impact in HCI, as well as to identify instances of Jordanian cultural variables, which is the focus of field studies in this thesis. The balance and range of cultural variables in the Diamond Model suggests that culture should have impact beyond design preferences, and should also influence how users react to, explain and evaluate difficulties when using computers. To investigate whether this was the case, a series of field studies was carried out to explore the balance between the impact of culture on design preferences and on reactions to usage difficulties. Each field study found Jordanian instances for cultural variables in the Diamond Model, but also added further cultural variables that had not been identified in either the general or the HCI literature. In the process, we identified more cultural variables that influenced reactions to usage difficulties in Jordan than influenced design preferences. This thesis presents the Diamond Model, applies it to existing literature on culture and HCI, and uses it to structure analysis of results from three field studies. The result is an extended Diamond Model with specific Jordanian instances of cultural variables. However, this alone may not help software developers to understand how culture impacts HCI in Jordan. To complement the Diamond Model, we developed a novel approach called “Dramatic Sketches” to communicate impact of cultural variables on HCI. We present example Dramatic sketches and conclude with guidance on developing software for Jordanian contexts.

▼ Sensory information processing is an important feature of robotic agents that must interact with humans or the environment. For example, numerous attempts have been made to develop robots that have the capability of performing interactive communication. In most cases, individual sensory information is processed and based on this, an output action is performed. In many robotic applications, visual and audio sensors are used to emulate human-like communication. The Superior Colliculus, located in the mid-brain region of the nervous system, carries out similar functionality of audio and visual stimuli integration in both humans and animals. In recent years numerous researchers have attempted integration of sensory information using biological inspiration. A common focus lies in generating a single output state (i.e. a multimodal output) that can localize the source of the audio and visual stimuli. This research addresses the problem and attempts to find an effective solution by investigating various computational and biological mechanisms involved in the generation of multimodal output. A primary goal is to develop a biologically inspired computational architecture using artificial neural networks. The advantage of this approach is that it mimics the behaviour of the Superior Colliculus, which has the potential of enabling more effective human-like communication with robotic agents. The thesis describes the design and development of the architecture, which is constructed from artificial neural networks using radial basis functions. The primary inspiration for the architecture came from emulating the function top and deep layers of the Superior Colliculus, due to their visual and audio stimuli localization mechanisms, respectively. The integration experimental results have successfully demonstrated the key issues, including low-level multimodal stimuli localization, dimensionality reduction of audio and visual input-space without affecting stimuli strength, and stimuli localization with enhancement and depression phenomena. Comparisons have been made between computational and neural network based methods, and unimodal verses multimodal integrated outputs in order to determine the effectiveness of the approach.

▼ Team coordination is vital to the success of team missions. On the battlefield and in other hazardous environments, mission outcomes are often very unpredictable because of unforeseen circumstances and complications encountered that adversely affect team coordination. In addition, the battlefield is constantly evolving as new technology, such as context-aware systems and unmanned drones, becomes available to assist teams in coordinating team efforts. As a result, we must re-evaluate the dynamics of teams that operate in high-stress, hazardous environments in order to learn how to use technology to enhance team coordination within this new context. In dangerous environments where multi-tasking is critical for the safety and success of the team operation, it is important to know what forms of interaction are most conducive to team tasks. We have explored interaction methods, including various types of user input and data feedback mediums that can assist teams in performing unified tasks on the battlefield. We?ve conducted an ethnographic analysis of Soldiers and researched technologies such as sketch recognition, physiological data classification, augmented reality, and haptics to come up with a set of core principles to be used when de- signing technological tools for these teams. This dissertation provides support for these principles and addresses outstanding problems of team connectivity, mobility, cognitive load, team awareness, and hands-free interaction in mobile military applications. This research has resulted in the development of a multimodal solution that enhances team coordination by allowing users to synchronize their tasks while keeping an overall awareness of team status and their environment. The set of solutions we?ve developed utilizes optimal interaction techniques implemented and evaluated in related projects; the ultimate goal of this research is to learn how to use technology to provide total situational awareness and team connectivity on the battlefield. This information can be used to aid the research and development of technological solutions for teams that operate in hazardous environments as more advanced resources become available.

▼ The standard approach for browsing information on mobile devices includes touchscreen gestures such as pinch and flick. These gestures often require minute operations such as repetitive panning to browse contact lists on a mobile device. Using these gestures to explore large information spaces to facilitate decision-making tasks often involves considerable effort and the user has to deal with screen occlusion and fat-finger situations. However, the void space around mobile devices is much larger than the small touch screen. Researchers have demonstrated that such in-air space can be used as an alternative to touch input for fundamental operations, such as answering and rejecting phone calls. While such prior work has laid the foundation for around-device input, a complete mobile application that deploys and benefits from such an input modality had not been investigated prior to this thesis. In this thesis, we explored how in-air space around a mobile device can be used to structure mobile interfaces to facilitate complex goals such as making a purchase decision with a smartphone. To achieve this goal, we began with investigating various design factors that influence the performance of accessing content that can virtually exist around the device. We then explored users’ and spectators’ perceptions of using around-device gestures to access on-device information as their readiness of performing such gestures could lead to rapid adoption of this interaction style. Finally, we used these prior findings to design and structure a complete mobile commerce application with around-device space and compared it to traditional touch interfaces. Study results revealed that using an in-air mobile interface can be more efficient than standard touchscreen interactions. Overall, this research took the first successful step in empirically showing the practical value for using the around-device space for exploring large information spaces on mobile devices.

▼ Fundamental movement skills (FMSs) are considered to be one of the essential phases of motor skill development. The proper development of FMSs allows children to participate in more advanced forms of movements and sports. To be able to perform an FMS correctly, children need to learn the right way of performing it. By making use of technology, a system can be developed that can help facilitate the learning of FMSs. The objective of the research was to propose an effective natural user interface (NUI) architecture for detecting FMSs using the Kinect. In order to achieve the stated objective, an investigation into FMSs and the challenges faced when teaching them was presented. An investigation into NUIs was also presented including the merits of the Kinect as the most appropriate device to be used to facilitate the detection of an FMS. An NUI architecture was proposed that uses the Kinect to facilitate the detection of an FMS. A framework was implemented from the design of the architecture. The successful implementation of the framework provides evidence that the design of the proposed architecture is feasible. An instance of the framework incorporating the jump FMS was used as a case study in the development of a prototype that detects the correct and incorrect performance of a jump. The evaluation of the prototype proved the following: - The developed prototype was effective in detecting the correct and incorrect performance of the jump FMS; and - The implemented framework was robust for the incorporation of an FMS. The successful implementation of the prototype shows that an effective NUI architecture using the Kinect can be used to facilitate the detection of FMSs. The proposed architecture provides a structured way of developing a system using the Kinect to facilitate the detection of FMSs. This allows developers to add future FMSs to the system. This dissertation therefore makes the following contributions: - An experimental design to evaluate the effectiveness of a prototype that detects FMSs - A robust framework that incorporates FMSs; and - An effective NUI architecture to facilitate the detection of fundamental movement skills using the Kinect.

As mobile devices become a larger part of modern society, understanding how they differ from desktop devices and how to design for them is becoming more relevant. Apple and Google have themselves published guidelines for how applications should be designed on iOS and Android, the two major operating systems on mobile devices today. But the opinions on how important guidelines are for providing users with the best experience possible differ, both in scientific writing and among industry professionals. This study focuses on platform guidelines for navigation, researching the question: What effect does platform guidelines for navigation have on the usability of a smartphone application? To investigate this a usability experiment is conducted. The independent variable manipulated is type of navigation, which adheres or does not adhere to platform guidelines, and the dependent variable measured is usability in terms of effectiveness, efficiency and user satisfaction. The results from this experiment indicate no significant differences between the navigation types in terms of effectiveness nor efficiency. Differences found in user satisfaction cannot be linked to guidelines for navigation. Although familiarity can be identified as a major factor in why users were satisfied with navigation, what users considered familiar differed. Thus the results of this study bring into question whether the platform guidelines function as conventions and cannot confirm any major effects of platform navigation guidelines on the usability of a smartphone application.

Mobila enheter blir en allt större del av det moderna samhället, i och med detta blir det även allt mer relevant att förstå hur de skiljer sig från mer traditionella enheter och hur man bör designa för dem. Apple och Google har själva publicerat riktlinjer för hur mobilapplikationer kan utformas på iOS och Android, de två största operativsystemen på mobila enheter idag. Men åsikterna om hur viktiga dessa riktlinjerna är att följa för att ge användarna den bästa möjliga upplevelsen varierar, både i vetenskapligt skrivande och bland branschfolk. Denna studie fokuserar på plattformsriktlinjer för navigation och undersöker frågan: Vilken effekt har plattformsriktlinjer för navigation på användbarheten hos en mobilapplikation? För att undersöka detta utförs ett användbarhetsexperiment. Den oberoende variabel som manipuleras är typ av navigation, som följer eller inte följer plattformsriktlinjerna, och den beroende variabeln som mäts är användbarhet när det gäller effektivitet och användarnöjdhet. Resultaten från detta experiment visar inga signifikanta skillnader mellan navigationstyperna vad gäller effektivitet. Skillnader observerade i användarnöjdhet kan inte kopplas till plattformsriktlinjerna för navigation. Även om vana kan identifieras som en viktig faktor i varför användarna var nöjda med viss navigation så varierade vad användarna var vana vid på ett sätt som inte var kopplat till platformsriktlinjerna. Resultatet av denna studie ifrågasätter…

▼ Movement impairment after stroke typically requires intensive treatments for several weeks after the initial injury. An important goal for rehabilitation engineering is to develop technology that allows individuals with stroke to practice intensive movement training without the expense of an always-present therapist. This thesis focuses on stroke rehabilitation as an HCI problem, offering an HCI-centric investigation of the design space for effective rehabilitation therapies. We investigate an HCI-centric approach to stroke rehabilitation. First, we designed and developed a spatial augmented reality system for assessment and training of upper extremity in patients with stroke. This system leveraged a novel patient-computer interaction mode which showed patient’s superior performance compared to the conventional computerized stroke rehabilitation. Next we developed and evaluated a 3D free hand interaction environment for training high-level hand functions in patients. After that, we developed a tele-rehabilitation neuro-game platform designed for in-home patient's use that included several neuro-games to enhance targeted brain functions in patients. Finally, a study was designed to investigate neurobiological correlates of patients’ cognitive functions while using our tele-rehabilitation platform.Based on the studies’ findings, we argue that the benefit of using an HCI-centric approach to stroke rehabilitation is twofold: (i) it introduces advanced computer technology that can be customized to specific patients’ needs; and (ii) it provides new methods to help patients with their Activities of Daily Living (ADL), both in terms of their behavioral change as well as functional capabilities. Furthermore, our game design process and principles are tailored to the challenges and opportunities of neuro-rehabilitation. This research is an in-depth analysis of how technology, and games in particular, need to be carefully considered to support effective therapies for physical rehabilitation.

▼ Charts abound in printed media and on the web. They have become a primary means to communicate quantitative information. Furthermore, the rise of visualization authoring packages, such as D3, mean creating visualizations is easier than ever before. However, the problem of creating effective, usable visualizations remains challenging.The effectiveness of a visualization is tied to both its design and the task a viewer wishes to complete. Fortunately, researchers have made great progress in the past decades in developing empirically derived design guidelines for visualizations. Some have explored the effectiveness of design choices through graphical perception experiments. Others have outlined the perceptual and cognitive processes viewers undergo when completing a task with a chart. Together, these strands of research provide a foundation for good visualization design.Yet, many visualizations do not adhere to these guidelines. Some may have been created before such guidelines were available, while others may simply ignore them. In addition, the usability of a visualization may differ from viewer to viewer, depending on the specific task she wishes to complete.gIn this thesis, we explore techniques for improving the usability of existing, bitmap visualizations by modifying or augmenting them.In order to modify charts, we need access to the locations of the marks in the chart (e.g., the bars in a bar chart, or the slices in a pie chart) and the underlying data. We present algorithms that automatically extract this information from raster bar and pie charts that obey some common assumptions.gUsing a corpus of images drawn from the web, these algorithms successfully extract marks from 79% of bar charts and 62% of pie charts, and from these charts they successfully extract the data from 71% of bar charts and 64% of pie charts. We then present an application that uses the extracted marks and data to present a gallery of redesigns.Next, we tackle the problem of customizing existing visualizations to best support a viewer's goal.gReading a visualization can involve a number of tasks such as extracting, comparing or aggregating numerical values, but most visualizations only support a subset of these tasks. We introduce graphical overlays—visual elements that are layered onto charts to facilitate a larger set of chart reading tasks. These overlays directly support the lower-level perceptual and cognitive processes that viewers must perform to read a chart. We identify five main types of overlays that support these processes; the overlays can provide (1) reference structures such as gridlines, (2) highlights such as outlines around important marks, (3) redundant encodings such as numerical data labels, (4) summary statistics such as the mean or max and (5) annotations such as descriptive text for context. We then present an automated system that applies user-chosen graphical overlays to existing chart bitmaps. Our…
