Through our experiments, we ensure that the E3-player can indeed enhance video experience and provide new video experiences for viewers.","PeriodicalId":253850,"journal":{"name":"IUI '13 Companion","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126082572","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}

Users can directly manipulate document features (keywords) to indicate their interests and Reinforcement Learning is used to model the user by allowing the system to trade off between exploration and exploitation.

Within this work, we specifically emulate this natural human activity by providing a dynamic graph-based view of entities automatically extracted from text using superficial text parsing / processing techniques. We provide a preliminary web-based tool (called 'SKIMMR') that generates a network of inter-related concepts from a set of documents. In SKIMMR, a user may browse the network to investigate the lexically-driven information space extracted from the documents. When a particular area of that space looks interesting to a user, the tool can then display the documents that are most relevant to the displayed concepts. We present this as a simple, viable methodology for browsing a document collection (such as a collection scientific research articles) in an attempt to limit the information overload of examining that document collection. This paper presents a motivation and overview of the approach, outlines technical details of the preliminary SKIMMR implementation, describes the tool from the user's perspective and summarises the related work.","PeriodicalId":253850,"journal":{"name":"IUI '13 Companion","volume":"21 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120997143","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}

Data measured by the sensors is sent to respective services, which can react on them and control actuators correspondingly. In order to improve the services and make them smarter, they can communicate with each other and exchange data. The more interferences between the services exist, the more complex is the monitoring and extension of such smart spaces. In this paper, we propose a monitoring tool for these environments, which consists of a real and a virtual component. The real component is the physical smart space itself and the virtual one consists of a three-dimensional model of the space. Sensor information is transmitted from the real to the virtual component and represented there, via an appropriate visualization. Additionally, the tool offers a communication channel from the virtual component to the real counterpart to control the physical actuators.","PeriodicalId":253850,"journal":{"name":"IUI '13 Companion","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114962441","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}
