We are seeking outstanding candidates with a background in adaptive interfaces and possibly information visualization to contribute to a project aimed at developing user-adaptive visualizations. Experience with eye-tracking technology is an asset.
Project description
The project involves an interdisciplinary team from the fields of artificial intelligence, psychology, adaptive interfaces, and information visualization.
There is growing evidence that visualization effectiveness can depend on user traits such as cognitive skills, knowledge, preferences and attention. The goal of our project is two-fold: (i) conduct user studies to identify the role of individual differences in visualization effectiveness; (ii) develop user-adaptive visualizations that adapt in real time to specific user needs, using information on the relevant individual differences as well as behavioral data collected via eye-tracking and other sensors.
