CSE Distinguished Lecture Series Marti Hearst (UC Berkeley) CSE Distinguished Lecture Series Thursday, October 30, 2014, 3:30pm EEB-105 Abstract: It is rare for a new user interface to break through and become successful, especially in information-intensive tasks like search, coming to consensus or building up knowledge. Most complex interfaces end up going unused. Often the successful solution lies in a previously unexplored part of the interface design space that is simple in a new way that works just right. In this talk I will give examples of such successes in the information-intensive interface design space, and attempt to provide stimulating ideas for future research directions. |
