Inhabitants of smart environments should interact with each other in a seamless context-sensitive manner. Identity verification is a frequent task required before any interaction. However, every interaction requires a different identity profile and a different verification protocol. Asking inhabitants to verify themselves before every interaction is a tedious, time-consuming process that disrupts inhabitants' activities and degrades the overall performance. To avoid such problems, we propose IdProF, a secure context-sensitive seamless multi-modal identity provisioning framework for smart environments. IdProF builds an encrypted 360-Degree Inhabitant Profile (i.e., 360DIP) using the inhabitant's activities history and the corresponding access and usage patterns for environment's resources. Using the developed 360DIP, and based on the involved context (e.g., location, involved activity, interacting inhabitant, access date and time), IdProF generates a Disposable Customized Virtual Inhabitant Profile (DCVIP) on demand, then creates a customized identity proxy to handle the identity verification for the required interaction. In case of DCVIP generation failure, warnings are sent to the inhabitant to verify the interaction. We believe, IdProF reduces the risks for identity theft/loss, as it does not depend only on unique identifiers, but it takes into consideration the dynamics of the inhabitants' behaviors as well as their access and usage patterns.

User experience over time with conversational agents: case study of woebot on supporting subjective well-being Demirci, Hatice Merve; Töre Yargın, Gülşen; Department of Industrial Design (2018) Technological advancements re-shaped user-product interactions by enabling people to make conversation with interactive systems. This new form of interaction led designers to create a new type of user interface: Conversational User Interface (CUI). Expensive psychological therapy fees and people’s increased awareness related to importance of well-being attracted the interactive system developers to create a domain specific Conversational Agent, which is particularly focusing on psychological terapy and has ...
SPEED PERCEPTION IN MULTISENSORY PROFILES: WHAT IS THE EFFECT OF ATTENTION? Kavaklıoğlu, Efsun; Özge, Umut; Kafalıgönül, Hulusi; Department of Bioinformatics (2022-2-7) Multisensory processing and crossmodal interactions in the temporal domain are crucial for survival in a dynamic environment. Temporal ventriloquism illusion demonstrates the importance of the crossmodal interactions in the temporal domain and the influences of the auditory signals (e.g., auditory time intervals) on visual perception. Attention is another mechanism playing a critical role in sensory processing, and it allows us to prioritize relevant information in the visual field. Previous studies have sh...
Robot planing based on learned affordances Çakmak, Maya; Şahin, Erol; Department of Computer Engineering (2007) This thesis studies how an autonomous robot can learn affordances from its interactions with the environment and use these affordances in planning. It is based on a new formalization of the concept which proposes that affordances are relations that pertain to the interactions of an agent with its environment. The robot interacts with environments containing different objects by executing its atomic actions and learns the different effects it can create, as well as the invariants of the environments that aff...
Technology reshaping the geography: high speed train in Turkey Şenyel Kürkçüoğlu, Müzeyyen Anıl (2017-07-14) Technological improvements reshape the geography and reorganize social interactions. Infrastructure investments fueled by new technologies have changed time and space perceptions, while having a considerable impact on development, livability, and democratization of societies. Transportation 176 developments bring about the most tangible interventions on spatial organizations and physical interactions. Starting from micro-level daily commuting, to macro-level international transport, increased accessibility...
Risky business: The combined effects of fishing and changes in primary productivity on fish communities FU, Caihong; TRAVERS-TROLET, Morgane; VELEZ, Laure; Gruss, Arnaud; BUNDY, Alida; Shannon, Lynne J.; FULTON, Elizabeth A.; Akoğlu, Ekin; HOULE, Jennifer E.; COLL, Marta; VERLEY, Philippe; HEYMANS, Johanna J.; John, Emma; SHIN, Yunne-Jai (2018-01-24) There is an increasing need to understand ecosystem responses to multiple stressors in that such complex responses depend not only on species-level responses, but also on species interactions and ecosystem structure. In this study, we used a multi-model ecosystem simulation approach to explore the combined effects of fishing and primary productivity on different components of the food-web across a suite of ecosystems and a range of model types. Simulations were carried out under different levels of primary ...
