We develop methods to study user experience and map user behavior without distracting the user. Can our electronic traces be used to predict what kind of services we need at any given time? How to make the system detect that you are occupied by a task and adapt accordingly?

About the area

The HCI group has for a number of years worked with methods to understand users and the interaction between user and system. We now want to take this a step further by developing methods to automatically identify and classify user behaviour without being disturbed by researchers.
