Convey: Exploring the Use of a Context View for Chatbots
CHI '18: Proceedings of the 2018 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems

Text messaging-based conversational systems, popularly called chatbots, have seen massive growth lately. Recent work on evaluating chatbots has found that there exists a mismatch between the chatbot's state of understanding (also called context) and the ...
Less is more: classifying mobile interactions to support context sensing in journeys
BCS-HCI '13: Proceedings of the 27th International BCS Human Computer Interaction Conference

This paper develops a classification of mobile interactions based on contextual information relevant to the mobile device user in journeys. Context-aware systems can be used to reduce the stress involved, support users in their activities and increase ...
