Abstract

At CHI'13 we introduced Supervisory Guide - an assistant system that invokes visual cues on a digital map display to aid the monitoring behavior of a human operator supervising unmanned aerial vehicles. The overall goal of the system is to improve situation awareness. A previously performed evaluation showed that the design of the scheme dictating the look and feel of visual cues invoked on the display is very important for user acceptance. This paper presents two connected participatory design studies. In the first study 12 participants explored the design space and sketched schemes using pen and paper. In the second study 6 participants specified the implemented scheme on the display. The results were used to design an adequate visual cue invocation scheme.

Abstract
This study examined the effects of software graphical user interface (GUI) visual cues in educational software on user performance. It specifically studied the effectiveness of three distinct and commonly used visual cues -- bolded text, buttons, ...
Transient visual cues for scrolling: an empirical study
CHI EA '02: CHI '02 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing Systems

The paper reports an empirical study, in which regular scrolling was compared with a novel scrolling technique featuring transient visual cues (TVC), that is, visual cues temporarily presented on a page to help the user locate new contents. An advantage ...
Salient object detection via multiple saliency weights

Salient object detection aims to emulate the extraordinary capability of human visual system, which has the ability to find the most visually attractive objects in a complex visual scene. The human visual attention is often complicated and affected by ...
