主題: On Grounding Human Communication with Human-Computer Interaction Designs 

大綱:

Basic research in social and cognitive sciences suggest that the nature of human cognition and communication is not all symbolic or abstract. While language and logics play important roles in human processes like thinking and conversation, these processes are nevertheless grounded on people's perceptions and interactions with the external physical and social world. The insight has a potentially rich space of research and development in human-computer interaction. In this talk, I'll present a quick overview of recent work that we're pursuing in the Collaborative and Social Computing Lab at NTHU. We focus on the study and design of tools for supporting the exchange and understanding of ideas in computer-mediated groups. Methodologically, we take an interdisciplinary approach where computing and behavioral sciences are closely linked and integrated.

簡介:

Dr. Hao-Chuan Wang is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Computer Science and the Institute of Information Systems and Applications of National Tsing Hua University since February 2012. He received his Ph.D. in Information Science from Cornell University in 2011. He also studied and worked at the School of Computer Science, Carnegie Mellon University (2006-2008) and the Institute of Information Science, Academia Sinica (2004-2006) previously. Prof. Wang’s main research interest lies in the collaborative and social aspects of human-computer interaction (HCI). His work aims to integrate computing research and behavioral and social sciences for problem solving and value creation. His recent projects include designing and evaluating machine translation tools for supporting cross-lingual communication and collaboration, using motion sensors to study human communication, and supporting education and learning with visualization and mobile devices. He is an active participant of international and regional HCI communities, such as ACM SIGCHI. He serves as one of the Program Committee Associate Chairs for CHI 2015, CSCW 2015, CHI 2014, CSCW 2013, and the Demonstrations Co-Chair for CSCW 2014. He’s also a Program Co-Chair for Chinese CHI 2014 and 2015. Prof. Wang has received funding support for his research from the Ministry of Science and Technology of Taiwan, Microsoft Research Asia, Google, Industrial Technology Research Institute, and Delta Electronics. He is also one of the recipients of Google Research Awards on February 2014.
