The second edition of Human-Computer Interaction established itself as one of the classic textbooks in the area, with its broad coverage and rigorous approach, this new edition builds on the existing strengths of the book, but giving the text a more student-friendly slant and improving the coverage in certain areas. The revised structure, separating out the introductory and more advanced material will make it easier to use the book on a variety of courses. This new edition now includes chapters on Interaction Design, Universal Access and Rich Interaction, as well as covering the latest developments in ubiquitous computing and Web technologies, making it the ideal text to provide a grounding in HCI theory and practice.

Digital technology is fundamentally altering the world we live in, but can only be truly understood in relation to the physical world we all inhabit. The most successful future products and policies will be those that take this rich digital/physical ecology seriously.The physical world is increasingly filled with digital products to the extent that the boundaries of digital and physical reality become blurred. From mundane devices such as mobile phones and washing machines, to esoteric research including tangible computation and body implants, we continually bridge two worlds literally touching buttons and dials and simultaneously interacting with the digital systems that lie behind them. The connection between pure thought and abstract information is through solid keyboard and mouse; but likewise the material world of buildings, cars and running shoes is suffused with computation through sensors, displays and flashing LEDs. How do people understand this world and how can designers create usable hybrid physical-digital products?TouchIT brings together insights from human-computer interaction and industrial design, exploring these themes under four main headings: human body and mind; objects and things; space; and information and computation. In considering each, the authors look into the underlying physical processes, our human understanding of them, and then the way these inform and are informed by digital design. The end draws together the theoretical and practical implications of this for design, including practical advice, potential tools, and philosophical underpinnings.

An authoritative and accessible one-stop resource, the first edition of An Introduction to Artificial Intelligence presented one of the first comprehensive examinations of AI. Designed to provide an understanding of the foundations of artificial intelligence, it examined the central computational techniques employed by AI, including knowledge representation, search, reasoning and learning, as well as the principal application domains of expert systems, natural language, vision, robotics, software agents and cognitive modelling. Many of the major philosophical and ethical issues of AI were also introduced. This new edition expands and revises the book throughout, with new material to augment existing chapters, including short case studies, as well as adding new chapters on explainable AI, big data and deep learning, temporal and web-scale data, statistical methods and data wrangling. It expands the book’s focus on human-centred AI, covering gender, ethnic and social bias, the need for transparency, intelligent user interfaces, and designing interactions to aid machine learning. With detailed, well-illustrated examples and exercises throughout, this book provides a substantial and robust introduction to artificial intelligence in a clear and concise coursebook form. It stands as a core text for all students and computer scientists approaching AI.You can also visit the author website for further resources: https://alandix.com/aibook/.

Every AI system needs to interact with humans and AI is affecting nearly every human engagement with digital technology from simple word processors to autonomous vehicles. This book explores these rich human aspects of AI: how AI can help in user experience design and how effective user interfaces can help AI. The term artificial intelligence has become inescapable in news and product adverts - some is mere hype, but some is transforming the way we live, work and see ourselves as human beings. To be truly useful the developers of AI need to understand the people who use their systems. Human–Computer Interaction (HCI) is both an area of academic research that looks at the way humans engage with digital technology, and a design discipline that tries to make digital systems better for people. In both HCI research and practical user experience design AI is ubiquitous. This book presents guidelines and methods for the design and evaluation of systems with AI at their core including smart environments and intelligent web and mobile applications. It also looks at the way AI can help the behind-the-scenes work of user experience designers and how better user interfaces can help AI developers navigate the complexity of vast and seemingly impenetrable AI models. It includes an examination of explainable AI and discussion of wider societal issues including the dangers of AI bias. The book website includes extensive additional material, including case studies, further reading, slides, videos, interactive demos and a substantial glossary of terms in both AI and HCI.AI for HCI offers a concise, accessible and actionable introduction to the interplay between AI and HCI whether you come from a background in one of these or neither. Read it for the joy of understanding this exciting area or to learn specific methods and techniques to use in your own projects.

Digital technology shapes our daily lives, from smartphones to autonomous cars, and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) focuses on understanding and enhancing how we interact with these systems. Human-Computer Interaction: The Basics provides a concise and accessible introduction to the foundational principles, practical applications, and contemporary challenges of this dynamic and diverse field.This book begins by exploring key topics such as understanding the human context in which systems are deployed, applying design and evaluation methods, and building and deploying human-focused software. Later chapters examine the social and ethical implications of digital technology and underlying theory and research, incorporating insights from psychological and social science perspectives. For those aiming to understand how the systems around them have been designed, or are seeking guidance to improve design processes, this book offers valuable insights to support the creation of better, more effective systems.An essential read for newcomers and first-year students, this book is ideal for those undertaking or considering courses related to HCI, including interaction design, user experience (UX) design, user interface design, and human-centered systems, as well as interdisciplinary fields like the digital humanities. It also offers insights and inspiration for more experienced readers.

This lecture covers several core issues in user-centered data management, including how to design usable interfaces that suitably support database tasks, and relevant approaches to visual querying, information visualization, and visual data mining. Novel interaction paradigms, e.g., mobile and interfaces that go beyond the visual dimension, are also discussed.

Many people find statistics confusing, and perhaps even more confusing given recent publicity about problems with traditional p-values and alternative statistical techniques including confidence intervals and Bayesian statistics. This book aims to help readers navigate this morass: to understand the debates, to be able to read and assess other people's statistical reports, and make appropriate choices when designing and analysing their own experiments, empirical studies, and other forms of quantitative data gathering.

This book constitutes the referred proceedings of the First IFIP WG 13.7 International Workshop on Human Aspects of Visualization, HCIV 2009, held in Uppsala, Sweden, in August 2009, as a satellite workshop of INTERACT 2009. The 11 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. These articles in this book give an overview of important issues concerning human-computer interaction and information visualization. They highlight the research required to understand what aspects of analysis match human capabilities most closely and how interactive visual support should be designed and adapted to make optimal use of human capabilities in terms of information perception and processing.
