Enhancing User Experience through Adaptivity in Intelligent User Interfaces

This article discusses the critical role of adaptivity in Intelligent User Interfaces (IUIs) for improving system functionality. The authors define IUIs as interfaces that dynamically communicate and adapt to various factors, such as user characteristics and task requirements. Key aspects include adaptivity constituents, determinants, and goals that guide the design process. Methodologies for specifying adaptation features and maintaining simplicity for users are highlighted. The article emphasizes that the combination of adaptivity and user-centric design is crucial, acknowledging challenges such as timing in communication.

  1. Intelligent User Interface:Supporting Adaptivity Katie Harris

  2. Article • Supporting Adaptivity in Intelligent User Interfaces: The case of Media and Modalities Allocation by Charalampos Karagiannidis, Adamantios Koumpis, and Constantine Stephanidis

  3. Interpretation of Article • Adaptivity is an important part of IUIs to help improve systems • IUIs are defined according to the author as a UI that adapts itself and has dynamic communications

  4. Interpretation 2 • Adaptivity constituents - the aspects of the interaction that are adapted, e.g. information content • Adaptivity determinants - the factors guide the adaptivity process, e.g. adaptivity based on user characteristics, task or application nature; • Adaptivity goals - the particular objectives that are to be served by the adaptivity process, e.g. minimize number of errors, optimize efficiency or effectiveness; • Adaptivity rules - ‘drive’ the instantiation of the adaptivity constituents, based on the state of the adaptivity determinants

  5. Interpretation 3 • Adaptivity Determinants: • User’s characteristics, tasks being performed, information characteristics, state of discourse • Adaptivity Constituents: • Generic functions, interaction level • Adaptivity Goals: • Easy efficient, speed up use, simplify use

  6. Interpretation 4 • Proposed Methodology • Step: specify adaptivity design space • Step: specify the set of partials of media and modalities • Step: Introduce constraints on composition of media and modalities • Step: Suggestions are combined in the design space

  7. Article and Relationship to Class • GUEPs are exemplified in this article • KISS: • Keeping the IUI as simple as possible for the user • Mental model: • What the user assumes a IUI should have should be incorporated into an IUI

  8. Examples from my own Experiences • Adaptivity is something that I have noticed in IUIs that is very important • Anything that is able to adapt as I use it only improves it’s functionality • Take Microsoft Excel for example – it starts to adapt to things I type in which makes my job easier

  9. Criticism of Conclusions • Says adaptivity is central to IUI • I believe that adaptivity is important to the changing IUI however I am not sure it is the main theme • I think the main theme is a combination of adaptivity and giving the user what they want • Issues related to timing in communication need to be identified • Says that should be directly or through shared space • This is not necessarily the biggest thing to consider with adaptivity • I think the biggest issue with IUIs and adaptivity is the user
