Exploring the Effects of Generative AI on Search Behaviors

This project will investigate how different types of search engines (e.g. Google) and generative AI systems (e.g. chatGPT) may help users when conducting information-seeking tasks. Our results will inform the design of search tools and increase our understanding of how generative AI systems can be integrated with search tools to assist users.

Gaze Tracking in Workplace Productivity Study

The purpose of this study is to understand how people use their eyes while working on tasks using multiple computer screens. We want to learn how eye movements change when people do structured tasks given by the research team compared to when they do their own regular work. This information can help us improve future technology, like smart glasses, to make working with virtual screens easier and more comfortable.

A Study of User Interfaces to Help Problem Formulation

Machine learning is a powerful tool for solving problems that involve a lot of data. It is being used in many different fields. The first step in creating a machine learning system is to understand what you want to achieve and then turn that goal into a plan for using machine learning. This is called problem formulation. Problem formulation is important because it not only helps you understand what you want to achieve but also helps you figure out if you have the right data to make it work. Practitioners need to try different approaches and see what works best for their data. This can take some trial and error. This study looks at a new tool designed to make problem formulation easier and see if it helps practitioners.
