Innovations in Artificial Intelligence and Human-Computer Interaction in the Digital Era

Innovations in Artificial Intelligence and Human Computer Interaction in the Digital Era investigates the interaction and growing interdependency of the HCI and AI fields, which are not usually addressed in traditional approaches. Chapters explore how well AI can interact with users based on linguistics and user-centered design processes, especially with the advances of AI and the hype around many applications. Other sections investigate how HCI and AI can mutually benefit from a closer association and the how the AI community can improve their usage of HCI methods like “Wizard of Oz” prototyping and “Thinking aloud” protocols.

Moreover, HCI can further augment human capabilities using new technologies. This book demonstrates how an interdisciplinary team of HCI and AI researchers can develop extraordinary applications, such as improved education systems, smart homes, smart healthcare and map Human Computer Interaction (HCI) for a multidisciplinary field that focuses on the design of computer technology and the interaction between users and computers in different domains.

• Presents fundamental concepts of both HCI and AI, addressing a multidisciplinary audience of researchers and engineers working on User Centered Design (UCD), User Interface (UI) design, and User Experience (UX) design
• Explores a broad range of case studies from across healthcare, industry, and education
• Investigates multiple strategies for designing and developing intelligent user interfaces to solve real-world problems
• Outlines research challenges and future directions for the intersection of AI and HCI
