    Understanding each-other: Engineering challenges and opportunities for users and systems in the deep learning era

    Full text link
    In this paper, we discuss the impact of Deep Learning (DL) techniques in the present and future of the interactive system engineering. On the one hand, the support for more complex vocabularies offers opportunities in better shaping the communication between the user and the system. On the other hand, we identify challenges related to the lack of transparency and explainability in the trained models, which have a negative impact on system understanding for both developers and users

    Esperienze di micropropagazione di piante di notevole interesse medicinale ed ecologico

    No full text
    We report on Artemisia umbelliformis subsp. eriantha and Leontopodium nivale, species belonging to the Asteraceae family, which are subendemics of both medicinal and ecological interest. The first one is mostly utilized for liqueur preparation while the latter one is well-known for its anti-inflammatory activity. Experimental protocols aimed to the rapid multiplication of both species have been developed; in the case of Artemisia, regenerated plants have been reintroduced in experimental fields in the ‘Gran Sasso Monti della Laga’ National Park

    DG3: Exploiting Gesture Declarative Models for Sample Generation and Online Recognition

    No full text
    In this paper, we introduce DG3, an end-to-end method for exploiting gesture interaction in user interfaces. The method allows to declaratively model stroke gestures and their sub-parts, generating the training samples for the recognition algorithm. In addition, we extend the algorithms of the $-family for supporting the online (i.e., real-time ) stroke recognition and their parts, as declared in the models. Finally, we show that the method outperforms existing approaches for online recognition and has comparable accuracy with offline methods after a few gesture segments

    In vitro propagation of Artemisia petrosa spp. eriantha: potential for the preservation of an endengered species

    A micropropagation method was developed for Artemisia petrosa ssp. eriantha (Genepı`), a central Apennines’ endemic which represents, at present, an endangered species due to indiscriminate harvest for commercial purposes, mainly liqueur production. Medium composition, and in particular the presence of CaCO3, influenced the rate of propagation which, under optimal conditions, reached an average of 30 – 35 shoots/explant. After in vitro rooting, and transfer to soil, a number of plantlets suitable for reintroduction in nature were produced

    Split and mill: User assisted height-field block decomposition for fabrication

    No full text
    We present here Split and Mill: an interactive system for the manual volume decomposition of free form shapes. Our primary purpose is to generate portions respecting the properties allowing to mill them with a 3-axis milling machine. We show that a manual decomposition is competitive with the automatic partitioning when the user is skilled enough. We, thus, think that our tool can be beneficial for the practitioners in the field, and we release it as free software

    Mitigating Human Errors and Cognitive Bias for Human-AI Synergy in Cybersecurity

    Full text link
    Cybersecurity advancements necessitate effective measures to combat rising and sophisticated threats. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and eXplainable AI (XAI) solutions have demonstrated significant capabilities in predicting and responding to cyber threats. Moreover, integrating AI components with Intelligent User Interfaces (IUI) has been explored as a promising approach, emphasizing user experience and interaction policies. Despite these advancements, the primary challenge remains addressing human errors, particularly those induced by cognitive biases. This paper provides an overview of possible recommendations on AI integration with cybersecurity systems and human cognitive bias mitigation solutions
