MultiMental-IAS: A Multimodal Driver Mental State Analysis Dataset for Context-Aware Non-IID Evaluation
Robust driver-state modelling requires synchronized physiological, behavioural, and contextual signals, yet existing open resources typically target a single cognitive state, omit continuous vehicle…Analysing the Narrative Paradox through Formal Models and Properties in Interactive Narrative
Interactive narratives aim to let players influence the unfolding of a story while preserving a coherent and satisfying narrative progression.Creating Hybrid Interactive Narrative Systems with LLM: From Formal Description to Evaluation
Interactive narratives let users shape a story while an Experience Manager (EM) keeps it coherent, balancing player freedom against authorial control.GraTED: Graph--Tensor EEG Decoding for Passenger Hazard Perception in Autonomous Vehicles
Passenger electroencephalography (EEG) can reveal road risk through anticipatory responses before hazardous events and neural reactions around their onset.Supporting Habit Formation in Pre-Meal Photo Capture: A Longitudinal Study of Behavior Change Techniques
Pre-meal photo capture is lightweight only with a smartphone, yet habit formation requires repeatedly initiating and completing the action within the narrow window before the first bite.Can You Predict the Next Mind? Toward Multi-Turn Multi-Party Mental World Modeling
While multimodal foundation models have achieved remarkable progress in physical world modeling, generation, and embodied reasoning, their capacity for dynamic mental world modeling remains…How Data Journalists Visualize Uncertainty: Editorial Constraints and Design Heuristics in Newsroom Practice
Communicating uncertainty is increasingly recognized as important in data journalism, yet in practice it is often oversimplified, downplayed, or omitted.MetamorphX: An Ungrounded 3-DoF Moment Display that Changes its Physical Properties through Rotational Impedance Control
Humans can estimate the properties of wielded objects (e.g., inertia and viscosity) using the force applied to the hand.VizDAGuide: Misleading Chart Question Answering in Compact Vision Language Models via DAG-Structured Supervision
Misleading charts can lead vision-language models to conclusions that conflict with underlying data.Selfrionette: A Fingertip Force-Input Controller for Continuous Full-Body Avatar Manipulation and Diverse Haptic Interactions
We propose Selfrionette, a controller that uses fingertip force input to drive avatar movements in virtual reality (VR).Inferring Transferable Rewards via Active Inverse Reinforcement Learning
Inverse Reinforcement Learning (IRL) aims to recover expert rewards that transfer across environments with differing dynamics.From FAIR to AI-FAIR Metadata-First Infrastructure for AI-Enabled Science
Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and their capabilities have advanced rapidly over the past few years, leading to widespread interest and adoption in the biological and ecological sciences.CrowdForge: Effects of Audio and Visual Audience Participation Modalities on Agency, Collaboration, and Engagement in AI-Mediated MR Performances
Technology-mediated audience participation (TMAP) enables audiences to influence live performances, yet balancing interaction with meaningful agency remains challenging.OpenZilo: An Open Smart-Ring Platform for Human-Centric Sensing and Interaction with Robots
Wearable robot interfaces must connect user input to timely physical action.EmbryoProfiler: A Visual Clinical Decision Support System for IVF
In-vitro fertilization (IVF) has become standard practice to address infertility, which affects more than one in ten couples in the US.Mediating Human-Swarm Interactions Through a Robot Helper: A Shepherding-Inspired Approach
This work investigates human-swarm interaction (HSI) for steering large collectives through an intermediary robot helper.Proceedings of the CSCW 2026 Workshop on Women's Health as Cooperative Work: Participatory AI Across Care, Community, and Policy
This submission indexes contributions to the CSCW 2026 workshop, "Women's Health as Cooperative Work: Participatory AI Across Care, Community, and Policy," held on October 11, 2026.From Benchmarks to Behaviors: A Framework for Auditing AI Agents
Generative AI systems increasingly mediate access to information.Must AI Spell It Out? Pragmatic Comprehension of Alerts in a Time-Critical Task
Assistive systems typically tell users everything, often spending time and attention on what a user already knows, leaving less for what happens next.Cross-Scale Spatial Reasoning: A Learning-Centered Framework for Designing Immersive Learning Environments
Understanding complex scientific and engineering systems often requires learners to connect structures, processes, and behaviors across different spatial scales and levels of organization.
