Studies on Personalized HCI

Abstract

In this work, four personalized HCI applications: Dynamic Captioning, Image Re-emotionalizing, Learning to Photograph and Touch Saliency were studied to improve human experience when using computer, and touch mobile devices. The aim of the first work was to propose a new scheme, dynamic captioning, to enhance video accessibility. The aim of the second work, image re-emotionalizing, was to synthesize user specified emotional affection onto arbitrary input images. In the third work, learning to photograph, an intelligent photography system which recommends the most user-favored view rectangle for arbitrary camera input was presented. In the last work, touch saliency, a new touch saliency concept was proposed to study the relationship between human touch behavior and image saliency.
