However, it is still unclear how such descriptions influence individuals' perceptions of such apps and their recommendations. We therefore investigate how current AI descriptions influence individuals' attitudes towards algorithmic recommendations in fertility self-tracking through a simulated study using three versions of a fertility app. We found that participants preferred AI descriptions with explanation, which they perceived as more accurate and trustworthy. Nevertheless, they were unwilling to rely on these apps for high-stakes goals because of the potential consequences of a failure. We then discuss the importance of health goals for AI acceptance, how literacy and assumptions influence perceptions of AI descriptions and explanations, and the limitations of transparency in the context of algorithmic decision-making for personal health.","PeriodicalId":20553,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the ACM on Interactive, Mobile, Wearable and Ubiquitous Technologies","volume":"9 11","pages":"1 - 24"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139437954","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By synchronously tracking the physical space in front of the mirror and the reflection behind it using an AR headset and an optional smart mirror component, reflected reality enables novel AR interactions that allow users to use their physical and reflected bodies to find and interact with virtual objects. We propose a design space for AR interaction with mirror reflections, and instantiate it using a prototype system featuring a HoloLens 2 and a smart mirror. We explore the design space along the following dimensions: the user's perspective of input, the spatial frame of reference, and the direction of the mirror space relative to the physical space. Using our prototype, we visualise a use case scenario that traverses the design space to demonstrate its interaction affordances in a practical context. To understand how users perceive the intuitiveness and ease of reflected reality interaction, we conducted an exploratory and a formal user evaluation studies to characterise user performance of AR interaction tasks in reflected reality. We discuss the unique interaction affordances that reflected reality offers, and outline possibilities of its future applications.","PeriodicalId":20553,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the ACM on Interactive, Mobile, Wearable and Ubiquitous Technologies","volume":"2 4","pages":"1 - 28"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139438023","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While most commercial devices have adopted touch panels situated on the temple front of eyeglasses for interaction, this paper identifies a drawback stemming from the unparalleled plane between the touch panel and the display, which disrupts the direct mapping between gestures and the manipulated objects on display. Therefore, this paper proposes RimSense, a proof-of-concept design for smart eyewear, to introduce an alternative realm for interaction - touch gestures on eyewear rim. RimSense leverages piezoelectric (PZT) transducers to convert the eyeglass rim into a touch-sensitive surface. When users touch the rim, the alteration in the eyeglass's structural signal manifests its effect into a channel frequency response (CFR). This allows RimSense to recognize the executed touch gestures based on the collected CFR patterns. Technically, we employ a buffered chirp as the probe signal to fulfil the sensing granularity and noise resistance requirements. Additionally, we present a deep learning-based gesture recognition framework tailored for fine-grained time sequence prediction and further integrated with a Finite-State Machine (FSM) algorithm for event-level prediction to suit the interaction experience for gestures of varying durations. We implement a functional eyewear prototype with two commercial PZT transducers. RimSense can recognize eight touch gestures on the eyeglass rim and estimate gesture durations simultaneously, allowing gestures of varying lengths to serve as distinct inputs. We evaluate the performance of RimSense on 30 subjects and show that it can sense eight gestures and an additional negative class with an F1-score of 0.95 and a relative duration estimation error of 11%. We further make the system work in real-time and conduct a user study on 14 subjects to assess the practicability of RimSense through interactions with two demo applications. The user study demonstrates RimSense's good performance, high usability, learnability and enjoyability. Additionally, we conduct interviews with the subjects, and their comments provide valuable insight for future eyewear design.","PeriodicalId":20553,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the ACM on Interactive, Mobile, Wearable and Ubiquitous Technologies","volume":"12 9","pages":"1 - 24"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139437737","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The traditional Trigger-Action rule approach for device automation is prone to ambiguity in complex scenarios. To address this issue, we propose a data-driven approach that leverages recorded user-driven event sequences to predict potential actions users may take and generate fine-grained device automation sequences. Our key intuition is that user-driven event sequences, like human-written articles and programs, are governed by consistent semantic contexts and contain regularities that can be modeled to generate sequences that express the user's preferences. We introduce ASGen, a deep learning framework that combines sequential information, event attributes, and external knowledge to form the event representation and output sequences of arbitrary length to facilitate automation. To evaluate our approach from both quantitative and qualitative perspectives, we conduct two studies using a realistic dataset containing over 4.4 million events. Our results show that our approach surpasses other methods by providing more accurate recommendations. And the automation sequences generated by our model are perceived as equally or even more rational and useful compared to those generated by humans.","PeriodicalId":20553,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the ACM on Interactive, Mobile, Wearable and Ubiquitous Technologies","volume":"11 4","pages":"1 - 22"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139437872","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although existing Radio Frequency (RF) signal based systems achieved great success, they have limited identification accuracy when either RF signals can not penetrate through a target or a target has different outer and inner materials. This paper introduces a Frequency Selective Surface (FSS) tag based high accuracy material identification system, namely FSS-Tag, which utilises both the penetrating signals and the coupling effect. Specifically, we design and attach a FSS tag to a target, and use frequency responses of the tag for material sensing, since different target materials have different frequency responses. The key advantage of our system is that, when RF signals pass through a target with the FSS tag, the penetrating signal responds more to the inner material, and the coupling effect (between the target and the tag) reflects more about the outer material; thus, one can achieve a higher sensing accuracy. The challenge lies in how to find optimal tag design parameters so that the frequency response of different target materials can be clearly distinguished. We address this challenge by establishing a tag parameter optimization model. Real-world experiments show that FSS-Tag achieves more than 91% accuracy on identifying eight common materials, and improves the accuracy by up to 38% and 8% compared with the state of the art (SOTA) penetrating signal based method TagScan and the SOTA coupling effect based method Tagtag.","PeriodicalId":20553,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the ACM on Interactive, Mobile, Wearable and Ubiquitous Technologies","volume":"10 42","pages":"1 - 24"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139437934","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the inherent complexity of Wi-Fi signals poses significant challenges for practical applications due to their pronounced susceptibility to deployment environments. To address this challenge, we delve into the distinctive characteristics of Wi-Fi signals and distill three pivotal factors that can be leveraged to enhance generalization capabilities of deep learning-based Wi-Fi sensing models: 1) effectively capture valuable input to mitigate the adverse impact of noisy measurements; 2) adaptively fuse complementary information from multiple Wi-Fi devices to boost the distinguishability of signal patterns associated with different activities; 3) extract generalizable features that can overcome the inconsistent representations of activities under different environmental conditions (e.g., locations, orientations). Leveraging these insights, we design a novel and unified sensing framework based on Wi-Fi signals, dubbed UniFi, and use gesture recognition as an application to demonstrate its effectiveness. UniFi achieves robust and generalizable gesture recognition in real-world scenarios by extracting discriminative and consistent features unrelated to environmental factors from pre-denoised signals collected by multiple transceivers. To achieve this, we first introduce an effective signal preprocessing approach that captures the applicable input data from noisy received signals for the deep learning model. Second, we propose a multi-view deep network based on spatio-temporal cross-view attention that integrates multi-carrier and multi-device signals to extract distinguishable information. Finally, we present the mutual information maximization as a regularizer to learn environment-invariant representations via contrastive loss without requiring access to any signals from unseen environments for practical adaptation. Extensive experiments on the Widar 3.0 dataset demonstrate that our proposed framework significantly outperforms state-of-the-art approaches in different settings (99% and 90%-98% accuracy for in-domain and cross-domain recognition without additional data collection and model training).","PeriodicalId":20553,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the ACM on Interactive, Mobile, Wearable and Ubiquitous Technologies","volume":"14 8","pages":"1 - 29"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139437316","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
