© 2021, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Developing natural and intuitive Human Computer Interaction is a primary target of interaction design. The analysis of a user’s engagement to the task is an essential component for the assessment of the interaction for design efficiency. The investigation of task engagement requires considering users’ goal orientation since performance-oriented and learning-oriented individuals exhibit motivational differences. Learning-oriented individuals focus on progress and mastery, whereas performance-oriented individuals focus on their ability. We present an experimental investigation of users’ task engagement and its interaction with modalities to study the role of goal orientation in Human Computer Interaction tasks. Twenty-five participants participated in the study. They performed the same task with three alternative interaction modalities: a mouse, an eye tracker, and a Microsoft Kinect v2 sensor. The participants also filled in a goal orientation questionnaire and user engagement questionnaire. The findings revealed that different modalities resulted in different task completion times. The completion time was then used as a factor for the analysis of the efficiency of the interaction. Further analyses showed significant interactions among the participants’ goal orientation, their engagement scores, and the interaction modalities.

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...
Data-driven image captioning via salient region discovery Kilickaya, Mert; Akkuş, Burak Kerim; Çakıcı, Ruket; Erdem, Aykut; Erdem, Erkut; İKİZLER CİNBİŞ, NAZLI (Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), 2017-09-01) n the past few years, automatically generating descriptions for images has attracted a lot of attention in computer vision and natural language processing research. Among the existing approaches, data-driven methods have been proven to be highly effective. These methods compare the given image against a large set of training images to determine a set of relevant images, then generate a description using the associated captions. In this study, the authors propose to integrate an object-based semantic image r...
Goal emulation and planning in perceptual space using learned affordances Ugur, Emre; Oztop, Erhan; Şahin, Erol (Elsevier BV, 2011-7) In this paper, we show that through self-interaction and self-observation, an anthropomorphic robot equipped with a range camera can learn object affordances and use this knowledge for planning. In the first step of learning, the robot discovers commonalities in its action-effect experiences by discovering effect categories. Once the effect categories are discovered, in the second step, affordance predictors for each behavior are obtained by learning the mapping from the object features to the effect catego...
Deictic gaze in virtual environments Yılmaz, Efecan; Acartürk, Cengiz; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2018) The research in human-robot interaction (HRI) involve topics, such as interlocutor collaboration in joint action, deixis in HRI, or the properties of shared environments. Moreover, referring expressions are particularly studied in joint action from both expression generation and resolution perspectives. Selective visual attention in gaze interaction and saliency patterns are also active topics in HRI. The present thesis investigated in a virtual reality (VR) environment an HRI and joint action situation wit...
An inquiry into the ontology of responsiveness: assessing embodiment and human-machine interaction in responsive environments Uçar Kırmızıgül, Başak; Mennan, Zeynep; Department of Architecture (2011) Advances in communication and information technologies, as well as recent developments in computer technology, material research and sensor networks instigate the studies on active and dynamic environments, which call for the participation of the human and the machine in the definition of responsiveness in architecture. The thesis aims to provide for an ontological inquiry on responsiveness and responsive environments by undertaking an overview of the extensive interest in the responsive experience in archi...
