Dream to Assist: Intent-Conditioned World Models for Shared Vehicle Control
Assistive agents in shared-control settings face a dual challenge: acting proactively to align with the human's intentions while remaining legible enough for the human to comprehend and fluently…The CAPED Framework: Characterizing User Skills in Chart Authoring through the Lens of Tasks and Tools
In this paper, we introduce a new framework for characterizing the user skills required for chart authoring.Affective and Functional Needs in AI Use: User Patterns and Their Relation to Real-Life Support and Well-Being
Conversational AI systems are increasingly used to fulfill both functional and affective needs, yet how users perceive the AI-adoption effects varies.Babysitting AI Agents: A User-Centered Taxonomy and Study of Agentic Delegation Failures
Users are increasingly delegating tasks to AI agents, allowing agents to perform long-running, multi-step workflows on their behalf.The Impact of Personalized AI Response Suggestions on Content Creators' Direct Messaging
Direct messaging is often employed by social media content creators to directly interact with followers.ECHOES: An Adaptive LLM-Powered AR Glasses Docent for Evidence-Grounded Urban Heritage Interpretation
Urban heritage tours are often delivered through fixed scripts, leaving limited room for visitors' situated questions, language preferences, or requests for evidence.What Will Replace Pull Requests? Rethinking Software Collaboration for AI Agents
The emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) coding agents has put pull requests under pressure: agents open millions of pull requests per month, while some open-source projects have begun to…Omni-InteractScope: Benchmarking Proactive and Agentic Interaction in Continuous Omnimodal Streams
Omnimodal large language models (Omni-LLMs) are increasingly expected to assist users while observing continuous audiovisual streams.Visible Reasoning: User-Facing Decision Transparency for Generative AI Systems
Across multiple waves of computing, public trust in new technology has followed the emergence of governance mechanisms that made dominant risks legible and manageable.Beyond Being Accurate: Implications for Using Natural Language Descriptions for Accessible 3D Modeling with~Blind and Low Vision Makers
People who are blind or have low vision (BLV) are largely excluded from 3D modeling tools that rely on visual representations of geometry.High-resolution tactile observation makes hidden racket-control mechanisms learnable
Experts can master fine hand-object manipulation skills, yet limited conscious perception of rapid tactile interactions hinders their ability to articulate the underlying control mechanisms.From Language to Drives: A Multimodal Framework for Aligning Autonomous Robots with Human Purposes
This work explores a multimodal approach to the alignment of the behavior of open-ended learning autonomous robots with human purposes through the use of large language models as cultural enablers.Revisiting Direct Control: A Field Evaluation of Sensor Fusion Efficacy in Teleoperating Full-Scale Autonomous Vehicles via Bird's Eye View
In autonomous driving, robot teleoperation serves as a critical safety fallback mechanism, requiring operators to assume direct control in the event of system failure.GNN-VIEW: Visual Inspection and Explanation of Graph-based Earth-System Models
Machine learning Earth-system models are becoming increasingly important, and so is their development.Reflective Computing
Interactive technology is increasingly built for speed, and generative AI now answers before a question is fully formed.The Watchtower Imperative: Lifespan-Calibrated Evaluation for Frontier AI
The gap between AI capability deployment and safety assurance is structural and cannot be closed through internal evaluations alone.EEGaze: Multimodal Attention Prediction in Visual Search via EEG-Based Saliency Refinement
Visual search is ubiquitous in daily life, from locating keys in a messy apartment to finding a tool in a cluttered workshop or an application icon on a desktop screen.The Evolution and 'Chineseness' of Urban Screens in China: From Propaganda Posters to Smart City Interfaces
Urban screens have become a global feature of the media city, yet their developmental paths are not universal.PolicyMediator: Multi-Regional Policy Learning through Mediation Agents with Evolving Skills in OPC Ecosystems
One-person companies (OPCs) are emerging enterprises operated by individual entrepreneurs through digital platforms and LLM-based AI agents.Immersive Commons: Designing Ephemeral Spatial Dialogue for Co-Located Mixed Reality Environments
Head-mounted mixed reality (MR) often prioritises individual immersion, potentially drawing attention away from others sharing the room.
