Abstract:: Although machine learning is becoming commonly used in today's software, there has been little research into how end users might interact with machine learning systems, beyond communicating simple "right/wrong" judgments. If the users themselves could somehow work hand-in-hand with machine learning systems, the accuracy of learning systems could be improved...

Abstract:: The potential for machine learning systems to improve via a mutually beneficial exchange of information with users has yet to be explored in much detail. Previously, we found that users were willing to provide a generous amount of rich feedback to machine learning systems, and that the types of some...

Creator:: Oregon State University. Dept. of Computer Science, Kissinger, Cory, Burnett, Margaret, 1949-, Stumpf, Simone, Subrahmaniyan, Neeraja, Beckwith, Laura A., Yang, Sherry, and Rosson, Mary Beth
Abstract:: Although researchers have begun to explicitly support end-user programmers' debugging by providing information to help them find bugs, there is little research addressing the right content to communicate to these users. The specific semantic content of these debugging communications matters because, if the users are not actually seeking the information...

Creator:: Oregon State University. Dept. of Computer Science, Stumpf, Simone, Burnett, Margaret, 1949-, Rajaram, Vidya, and Herlocker, Jonathan Lee
Abstract:: If basic assumptions about how knowledge workers conceptualize and use work units are wrong, then any solutions resting on those assumptions are unlikely to be successful since, instead of decreasing costs, they will lead to increasing them. This paper reports on how knowledge workers understand, use and switch between units...

Creator:: Rajaram, Vidya, Stumpf, Simone, Burnett, Margaret, 1949-, Dragunov, Anton, Wick, Evelyn, Lynn, Juliana, Johnsrude, Kevin, Herlocker, Jonathan Lee, and Oregon State University. Department of Computer Science
Abstract:: Knowledge workers need to find information but even when it is stored on their local computer systems, finding it can be costly. There are many researchers working on solutions to reduce these costs, but there has been little research into exactly what these costs are, and what the ties are...

Abstract:: This paper presents qualitative results from interviews with knowledge workers about their recovery strategies after interruptions. Special focus is given to when these strategies fail due to the nature of the interruption and existing computer support. Potential solutions offered by participants to overcome some of these problems are presented. These...
