Hi,<\/p>\n
Most welcome to the next research seminar Friday, March 20th.<\/p>\n
The seminar is held in Aktersalongen and we start at 13.15 (an finish at around 14.30).<\/p>\n
The speaker is Fredrik Ohlin who will present work that will soon be published in the area of personal informatics (see abstract below).<\/p>\n
Title: Intelligent Computing in Personal Informatics: State-of-practice and Future Directions<\/p>\n
Abstract: This talk will give a preview of two in press papers on personal informatics \u2014 the academic area concerned with information technology for tracking and understanding one\u2019s personal data. One paper is a state-of-practice review of current personal informatics systems (fitness trackers, logging apps, etc.). The other paper, \u2018Intelligent Computing in Personal Informatics: Key Design Considerations\u2019, is due to be presented at the ACM Intelligent User Interfaces conference a week later, and will be the main focus. Its abstract is included here:<\/p>\n
An expanding range of apps supported by wearable and mobile devices are being used by people engaged in personal informatics in order to track and explore data about themselves and their everyday activities. While the aspect of data collection is easier than ever before through these technologies, more advanced forms of support from personal informatics systems are not presently available. This lack of next generation personal informatics systems presents research with an important role to fill, and this paper presents a two-step contribution to this effect. The first step is to present a new model of human cooperation with intelligent computing, which collates key issues from the literature. The second step is to apply this model to personal informatics, identifying twelve key considerations for integrating intelligent computing in the design of future personal informatics systems. These design considerations are also applied to an example system, which illustrates their use in eliciting new design directions.<\/p>\n
Most welcome!<\/p>\n
