What Is the Role for Humans in Creative Writing? Creativity and Diversity in Human-AI Collaboration

A transmission-chain paradigm inspired by cognitive models of writing, with four stages: Plan, Write, Review, and Revise, that preserved AI-level creativity, increased diversity that persisted through downstream AI stages, and maintained enjoyment across human, AI, and hybrid chains.

Schema-Guided Response Generation using Multi-Frame Dialogue State for Motivational Interviewing Systems

A schema-guided approach is proposed for updating multi-frame dialogue states and a strategy decision mechanism that dynamically determines the response focus in a manner grounded in MI principles is proposed.

When Architectural Spaces Start to Act

Architectural spaces are increasingly gaining robotic capabilities. Architectural robots such as robotic partitions, ceilings, furniture, facades, and other spatial components can autonomously move and reconfigure in response to occupants' needs and activities. Yet, when architectural robots start shaping the spatial c...

MERIDIAN: Memory-Encoded Rituals for Intimacy across Distance in an Interactive, Asynchronous Neighbourhood

How can shared memories become playable structures for partners who live in different time zones? We present MERIDIAN, a pre-deployment design case of Yi Town, a bilingual browser game developed by one member of a long-distance couple as a gift for the other. Nine levels translate personally meaningful events, places a...

Designing wearable haptic cueing for neurological gait rehabilitation: user requirements across residential care and community settings

The user, design, and implementation requirements needed to make wearable haptic cueing systems usable in practice are investigated, informing wearable rehabilitation design rather than establish clinical efficacy.

Look Over There! Dynamic Visual Guidance for AI-Narrated Slides

Slides present information spatially, but narration unfolds linearly, leaving the viewer struggling to locate what the narration refers to. This split attention between audio and visual channels forces viewers to search the slide manually, imposing extraneous cognitive load and disrupting comprehension. The problem is...

Altered Visual Hand Feedback in Virtual Reality: An Exploratory Study in Essential Tremor

It is shown that a consumer-level hand-tracking system substantially attenuates tremor-band movements without preventing successful task completion, and task-dependent differences in physical tremor between VR and the real world are observed.

When History Overrides Intent: Relational Schema Lock-In in Human-LLM Interaction

Long-context interaction and persistent memory allow LLM assistants to develop history-grounded understandings of users. When users change direction, however, an understanding built through earlier exchanges may conflict with their current instruction. We introduce relational schema lock-in to describe cases in which a...

Toward Low-Burden Image-Based Dietary Assessment Through Human-AI Collaborative Correction

Human-AI Collaborative Correction is introduced, which reframes correction as communicate intent regenerate $\rightarrow$ regenerate $\rightarrow$ verify: users express what should change through text, voice, or guided clarification, the AI regenerates the linked dietary record, and users verify the result.

Imputing Missing Data in Longitudinal Life-Logging Athlete Data

Long-term, diverse personal informatics data enables athletes to understand and act on their health and performance goals, whether assessing readiness right now, tracking how soreness relates to training load over time, or predicting how sleep affects next-day performance. However, the inherent missingness in longitudi...

Flash Word : ESL Listening Support with Subtitle Skimming

Listening to English audio with English subtitles is thought to be effective for ESL students to improve listening comprehension skills. However, for those who learn English as a second language it can be hard to finish English subtitles. Also they are unlikely to focus on listening while being busy reading subtitles....

Formally verifying agent-written full-stack web apps with PDD Kit

AI agents can generate code at a scale that’s hard for humans to review line-by-line. PDD Kit helps ensure the code is doing what the developer intended by creating formal specifications and testing against them. It converts developer intent into a Verus specification, proves AI-generated code meets it for every input, and uses tests where proofs aren't practical. Developers review intent, not every line. The post Formally verifying agent-written full-stack web apps with PDD Kit appeared first o…

Q&A: How AI came to model the “messy” human mind

Assistant Professor Benjamin Lindquist studies how engineers deliberately injected randomness into early AI, giving rise to deep-learning models that sometimes hallucinate.
