Lab member Taylor Jackson Scott gave a well received presentation at the ACM Special Interest Group on Design of Communication conference in Seattle on a paper entitled “Adapting Grounded Theory to Construct a Taxonomy of Affect in Collaborative Online Chat.” The work detailed a flexible and extensible means for constructing a taxonomy of affect in text-based online communication. Katie Kuksenok, Michael Brooks, Daniel Perry, Ona Anicello, and Cecilia Aragon were co-authors for the paper.
Professor and SCCL director Cecilia Aragon and her colleagues received the best paper award at the IEEE/IAPR International Conference on Biometrics in India this weekend, for their paper, “Biometric Authentication via Oculomotor Plant Characteristics.”
Michael Brooks, a member of SCCL, along with collaborators Jevin West, Carl Bergstrom, and Cecilia Aragon, submitted their “hoptree” navigation system to the University of Washington Center for Commercialization. The hoptree assists users with browsing large hierarchical data sets (including file systems, web sites, or other trees) by displaying a branching navigation history over the hierarchy.
SCCL members will be presenting work at the upcoming HCDE Corporate Affiliates Day Research Poster Showcase on Wednesday, February 29th, from 12:30pm – 1:30pm. Presentations will be made in the Walker Ames Room of Kane Hall.
