  2. 11. Exploring Game Design through Human-AI Collaboration

    Author : Alberto Alvarez; Jose Font; Julian Togelius; Steve Dahlskog; Nancy L Russo; Georgios N. Yannakakis; Malmö universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer Games; Human-AI Collaboration; Mixed-Initiative; Procedural Content Generation; Quality Diversity; Computational Creativity; Interaktionsdesign; Interaktionsdesign;

    Abstract : Game design is a hard and multi-faceted task that intertwines different gameplay mechanics, audio, level, graphic, and narrative facets. Games' facets are developed in conjunction with others with a common goal that makes games coherent and interesting. READ MORE

  4. 12. Exploring the Dynamic Properties of Interaction in Mixed-Initiative Procedural Content Generation

    Author : Alberto Alvarez; Jose Font; Steve Dahlskog; Julian Togelius; Nancy L Russo; Sebastian Risi; Malmö universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mixed-Initiative; Procedural Content Generation; Quality Diversity; Computer Games; Evolutionary Algorithms;

    Abstract : As AI develops, grows, and expands, the more benefits we can have from it. AI is used in multiple fields to assist humans, such as object recognition, self-driving cars, or design tools. However, AI could be used for more than assisting humans in their tasks. READ MORE

  5. 13. Latent variable models for longitudinal twin data

    Author : Annica Dominicus; Juni Palmgren; Nancy L. Pedersen; Michael G. Kenward; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Latent variable models; twin models; variance components; change point models; non-ignorable nonresponse; likelihood ratio tests; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik;

    Abstract : Longitudinal twin data provide important information for exploring sources of variation in human traits. In statistical models for twin data, unobserved genetic and environmental factors influencing the trait are represented by latent variables. In this way, trait variation can be decomposed into genetic and environmental components. READ MORE

  6. 14. Toward Patient-centered, Standardized, and Reproducible Approaches of Evaluating the Usability of mHealth Chronic Disease Self-management Systems for Diabetes

    Author : Mattias Georgsson; Sara Eriksén; Nancy Staggers; Martin Rydmark; Johan Sanmartin Berglund; Annelie Ekelin; Jan Gulliksen; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chronic Disease; Diabetes; Mobile Health; mHealth; Self-management; Usability Evaluation; User-centered Design;

    Abstract : Diabetes is a chronic disease affecting 422 million patients worldwide according to World Health Organization data with 30.3 million in the United States and 64 million in Europe. The prevalence speaks to the need for improved ways to support patients in disease self-management. READ MORE

  7. 15. Dexterous Grasping : Representation and Optimization

    Author : Kaiyu Hang; Nancy Pollard; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Dexterous Grasping; Hierarchical Fingertip Space; Grasp Planning; Grasp Adaptation; Computer Science; Datalogi;

    Abstract : Many robot object interactions require that an object is firmly held, and that the grasp remains stable during the whole manipulation process. Based on grasp wrench space, this thesis address the problems of measuring the grasp sensitivity against friction changes, planning contacts and hand configurations on mesh and point cloud representations of arbitrary objects, planning adaptable grasps and finger gaiting for keeping a grasp stable under various external disturbances, as well as learning of grasping manifolds for more accurate reachability and inverse kinematics computation for multifingered grasping.
